For those who could not make it!

2006 NEPR will be in Maine along the Sandy River, the exact site is being selected now.

2007 will be in Southern Vermont (Shaftsbury)

There are rumors of New York for 2008. Anyone that has an idea about a future site for the NEPR should be in contact and I can make sure your ideas get aimed in the right direction.

We agree with "RC", the 2005 NEPR was a great event. Bruce Rodd deserves a ton of credit for putting together an event as quickly as he did and maintaining quality. Those that Bruce put in charge did a great job of setting up the shooting.

For those that did not shoot there was a "farkle" tournament, Scottish games and just plain enjoyment for all!!!

I'll be working on staff with Perley Urquhart in Maine next year. Many of those that helped this year have promised to help next year. It will be a great event on a great site.

I look forward to seeing you all in 2006!!!
