AIUK County Classic Shoots

[Dave]

Been having a think about the future of the AIUK Classic shoots, here's my thoughts so far. Feel free to discuss and add anything. If anyone would like to organise a shoot in their area please let me know (Northern Counties and Southern Counties are currently unavailable).

1. We'll hopefully have a shoot in each region - not just the south and north.
2. Each shoot to happen twice a year - one indoor shoot in the winter, one outdoor shoot in the summer.
3. The round shot at each shoot should be the same round. If need be, lesser distance rounds will be shot if required.
4. If Tarkwin and Cakemeister agree and wish to organise future events, they should be promoted within the forum to Shoot Organisers - as will anyone else who takes on the job of organising Classic Shoots.
5. Payment would be in advance of the shoot.
6. Payment should cover: the cost of the shooting ground, prizes, shoot organisers expenses. Remains to the AIUK slush fund/Charity?.
7. Prizes: do we organise proper trophies/medals?
8. Classic Shoots will be advertised in one of the boxes on the home page for 2 months in advance of the shoot. And possibly in AUK.
9. All cake should be photographed before being consumed....

Tarkwin has also mentioned to me that a few attendees would like an enamel badge to mark the AIUK Classic shoots. If anyone's interested I'll design a nice black and gold 'AIUK Classic 2006' badge that should cover NoCo and SoCo. They'll probably be around 4.00 (inc. P&P) based on the multi-colour badge we had done last time).

Cheers

Dave

Good call dave nothing to add here except attendance is mandatory!...lol

[Cakemeister]

Sounds OK to me- but I'll wait until this one's over first...! What about the end of season Grand Prix meet?

[Little Miss Purple]

All seems good to me......especially the badges, if they simply have AIUK 2006 then they can be applicable to all 'counties classics'.

Good one Dave

I'll try and organise that one - that would be seperate from the Classic Shoots.

There may also be a dietician attending the Grand Prix shoot to attend to those that will have shot at every Classic Shoot....

Will s/he be wearing a target?

Sounds good to me. I'm available as Classic Shoots photographer (keeps me BEHIND the camera!!). I would've photographed the cake BEFORE, but the vultures had descended before I got a look in!! BTW, you don't need a dietician to attend, just will power. All that cake and I only ate one piece -- unlike SOME people!

Love the enamel pin idea. If these are going to be available only to attendees, perhaps we include the cost in the entry fee.



And, Dave, remember I'm ready, willing, able and available as your loyal sidekick to do any arranging, planning, organising, etc. Even better now that we're in the same time zone!!

All sounds good to me Dave, and I'll have a badge if one is going to be created

[Cakemeister]

Having had a chance to think about this since lunchtime, I'm quite happy with the idea as it stands but I'm also happy just to be a 'default setting' if no-one else fancies a go- it may be that there are other AIUK Northern Counties people who would like to host the next event at their venue.

Having been at (and enjoyed) SoCo, you can put me down for a badge!
