Would it not make sense to try and combine your fayre with the other meeting already being planned here, since the ultimate aims are the same and the proposed dates would be close.

HI Brian, reading back though the original thread, It was still very much a work in progress as I understand, with nothing decided, We had one offer of a hotel hall, and an expression of interest from a bell club, plus my intention to ask at my local venue. My place were O.K. with the idea, but space is quite limited as we had two targets and 20 odd people at Thursday practice and it was crowded. Also, as I delved more into it, although the owner was relaxed about shooting, there are many advantages an organised and established club has in doing an event like this, not least in workload!

I attended both the previous fairs mentioned, and you need a fair few people to set it all up, do the safety and catering etc. etc.

I heartily recommend the Melbourne venue, there is plenty of room to circulate, plenty of targets for shooting, and a great bunch of airgun enthusiasts to boot!

I personally think that this is the first fully thought out and discussed offer to host the fair that has been offered, and so should be "the one".

ATB, Ed
