What, again? Yep! Today and tomorrow. The doors open at 9:00 a.m.
This show is at the Fort Benjamin Harrison National Guard Armory, over by Ft. Ben State Park in Lawrence. I don't know who is promoting it.
(Don't get me started about the nice pistol range the State de-leaded and decommssioned in the process of turning the Army base into a park. --But it is a beautiful park; the Army had taken good care of the place, one of the few mostly-unfenced bases -- you could drive right through it, 24/7/351. It was park-like long before it became one.)

Which two weeks was it closed? Why? Just vulgarly curious...
Exercises! --They'd barricade the gates, (presumeably) split up into offense and defense, and go to it.
You guys get a lot of gun shows out there.
The Army tends to be pretty good at groundskeeping. Got to give those GI's SOMETHING to do.
I well remember lining up with the rest of my battery on the grounds outside the barracks and, at the command of, "If a dog didn't sh*t it, git it!" policing up the area.
Good times, good times...
Damn!
Was just at the Triton brewery a few days ago.
Stop by and try it out, it's definitely worth it.
BYOS (Bring Your Own Snacks) or they have a mobile vendor stop by their parking lot most evenings.
I'm not sure I want to know what kind of exercises they did at the US Army Finance Center, but I knew several guys who probably thought their pay was a casualty...
The Fort proper was across the street and included DINFOS...so they may have been "fighting" with camcorders. It sounded like WW 3.
DINFOS, btw.
Yeah, it's a pity the state had to chicken out and close up that range. It's only two mintues from home!
