I emailed the program and food directors about this to see what they might have as far as weekends... the Prog director just told me today that the weekend is taken up with a big shotgun competition (meaning food is probably stretched then also, but the FD didn't email me back yet) so their rooms are booked, basically his input was the 10-11 would be possible but weekends probably not.
I'm looking at actually 3 things to come together, reservation/use of the range, lodging, and food (for those who don't want to cook/ camp). Since we're a small group we sort of need to fit into their schedule...
Without reserving the range we risk that it would be either full or simply closed.
Without lodging we'd need to find rooms in town, which is not impossible, or camp or RV it.
As a note, there is one founder's cabin open which I was able to get him to set aside (again, 10-11th)... it has 4 private rooms (which I would take one), at $65/night/room (up to 2 people/room), each one has two beds and one has 3. each room has its own shower/bath. Common kitchen and great room area.
If we could fill up that cabin and 1 or 2 guys want one of those rooms that's (each room) either $65 or $32.50/person/night... otherwise if someone wants some other arrangement I can ask...
As far as food, if the dining isn't open or is full then there's always cook on your/our own or eat in town.
So there are options if each one wants to fend for himself/herself... I was thinking to try to make it more of a group activity.
As far as just showing up on some given day/2-days and taking our chances, we could do that most likely on any given weekend or 2-day run... and roll the dice on which range we could shoot at and what we would do. That is of course an option.
So..... what does everyone want to do.
