Your weather is worse than mine on Lake Erie. Guess Buffalo got all my snow .

Does anyone know the exact dates for the rendezvous? For "outsiders/spectators ". Not for the entire week of camping.
I went last year for a couple hours. I enjoyed walking around and visiting the vendors tents. It was nice talking to the people there.
I took my rifle but left it in my truck. I couldn't ever figure out if I was allowed to shoot the woodswalk course or if I needed to preregister to shoot.
I've never attended and participated in anything like this so it's intimidating when you show up and don't know who or where. So unfortunately I didn't do anything.
I tried a couple weeks ago to find a contact number on the website where I can call to ask questions but I never found one. But it's possible I missed seeing it.
Thanks for any info.

Yearly rondevous at Garland Ridgerunners in Warren PA encourages period dress but will allow anyone to safely shoot the course. Extra points are awarded for dress. This is a club event not the state or eastern event .

That is correct.

Thank you both.
@Gum Slough Muzzleloader are you gonna be shooting there or just looking?
As I mentioned earlier I'm not sure if anyone can shoot there during this rendezvous or just the ones that stay there camping all week.

TarpnStaslker, I would love to shoot, I'm not a member, just walking and looking.
Plus I'll be dreaming about the time Era, and the guns...

The shooting is only open to campers. The only shooting on Saturday is the shoot off you have to qualify for during the week. The grand prize is a Kibler Rifle

My tent is across from the Hawk and knife range. We finish up with that on Friday. I will post pics of my set up if we ever get a break in this weather

I would love to do that, also talk about becoming a member.
Right now with the job site lm on and some health issues with wife I wouldn't be able to obligate time needed. Thinking of the future. The1st weekend if the month would be a good start to get to talk and ask some questions.
Thank you, flconch.

Thank you. That's what I've been wanting to know.
Maybe some day I'll get down there for one of the monthly shoots.
Good luck to you if you shoot.

Last year I drove there and walked around for a couple hours.
It's almost a two hour drive from my house but I really enjoyed it.
The music was great. I got to watch a few guys shooting clays with smoothbores. Also cool to watch.
If I make it this year I'll stop by to say hello.

Heading out shortly, I should be setup in about the same area although more on the commons than last year.

I am sorry for your loss. I am sure I met the gentleman as I have been attending for at least 35 years

Just to let people know Jim and Linda Fulmer have caps CCI and the German ones. Not cheap but less than the internet and no hazmat. I bought some.
