2010 NRA Convention in Charlotte, NC

[bryand71]

Ok, DRTV members. Who is going this year? I am taking time off for this one, it happens to be in my state this year and I don't want to miss out on all the fun. Is anyone planning a DRTV meet & greet?

Sound off on whether you plan on going and what day, maybe we can even get our picture taken with the DRTV Stars!

My wife and I will probably be there all three days.  I live less than 50 miles away from the convention center (and when I'm not working from home I actually work next door to it).  I'd love a DRTV meet & greet if we can work it out.

If I can get the war dept. good with a visa in time (and if I don't get stuck on the ship without a relief) it would make for a great motorcycle ride... destination/goal. you know... I sure do hope to get out there.

I am looking forward to this event, I have wanted to go to one of the yearly conventions for a long time, I just could never take time off or had enough money for the trip. I am trying to get my Father and Uncle to come down and go with me.

I'll probably swing it this year.   Saturday only though.

It's too bad so many things are stacked up in May with Binachi Cup just a week later.

I've made it to two and enjoyed them.  Once in Orlando to hear Chuck Yeager speak and once in Nashville to hear Limbaugh.  Who's the banquet speaker this year?

My old stomping grounds, with the family farm in Mooresville, 25 miles up I-77 North of Charlotte,.  I'm going, and I think m25 is going also.

Used to work Boat Shows at the CC, it's a nice one, right in the heart of "Uptown" Charlotte, locals don't call it "Downtown", kinda hokey, but looking forward to it.

It's in the works, just working out the logistics.  I have two Navy buddies I haven't seen in thirty years, one from MO and another who lives in the Charlotte area.  Hoping to catch up with one and drive down from New England and meet up with the other, should be a hoot as we were three rather mischievious sailors back in the day...

What we need is a distinctive badge so we recognize each other.   We do this in another group where someone designed a unique logo, then we each printed and laminated our own badge.

It would be good "advertising" for DRTV. 

What about the Shooting Gallery duck?
Or maybe just "DRTV"   

MICHAEL/MARSHAL Any objections to co-opting your logos?

Give me this holiday and I'll come up with an idea.

It's still too early to know for sure, but I'm going to try to go.  I've never been before.

Badges, DRTV T-Shirts?  all DRTV members go in wearing sunglasses? Track down the little announcer guy at the intercom and make a DRTV Roll Call announcement?

Just tossing em' out there...

Rendezvous at the Outdoor Channel Booth at "x" hour???

If deepwater can make it, he's our designated spotter, as he's about 7 feet tall.....
