Have the dates set finally-16-18 April. Cabins are first come first served except the handicapped equipped ones. Tenting room, RV, or Camper space free. No sewer hookups yet. The kitchen/dining hall is under renovation but we can utilize the Rec hall for the larger meetings and needs. Cooking will all be done over grills or campfire circle. We will have a fish fry ready Fri. PM when you arrive but Sat is campfire with Dutch Oven comp. Sat. evening. Ranges are open constantly. Plaques for last falls cooking awards will be given out. If weather threatens we will have a gas cooker set up to cook with like we used at Griffin lodge last year. For pics and past info you can go to minionreport.net and look under the "connect" forum or PM for specifics. We always have fun, learn lots, shoot a bunch, and eat well. Don't miss it and the cost is $5 per person for camp usage. We have a fun auction Sat. PM and that usually covers the tab for the food/supplies. Last fall we had $40 left over. Just bring a "white elephant" item to toss into the pile-we have some great gifts/items each year to auction-even the XXX Tee shirts-LOL. It is a family event so bring the kids/grands as there are lots they can do. Naturally they need adult supervision at the lake and other activities. We will have registration for the shooting events to make them flow more smoothly and timely. If you are a fisher person be sure to bring your gear. Camp Millstone 4-H camp is online-google it for pics/details/location. Verizon has good service there and there is a camp phone if needed. Hope to see more of you there. If you can help on the range please let me know.

I too just got back from a great time!! Everyone was super nice- more like a family reunion than folks who did not know each other. 4H campground and range are great. More good food than than the best resturant in Raleigh. The classes were great ( hat tip to RJ- good job on the plant info and sling.) Got some shooting time in on the range, got to test out some new stuff on my camper, made some great new friends! Hope to see some of them at Bills next month. Will try to get photos up tomarrow.

LOL, Ron can take the credit for raising a young "Annie Oakley". That little gal outshot the boys---and with a pink rifle. He is not a bad shot himself. Put two rounds into the bullseye and took the "Most Accurate Rifle". Would not want the gentleman shooting in my direction. If anyone has not seen MJ's "camper" then you are in for some Bug Out "eye porn".
