Covington VA --(Ammoland.com)- In an effort to better serve our members, we are implementing a program to share information useful to the firearms community.

If you want to access information on gun shows, shooting matches, VCDL meetings and special events, simply go to www.vcdl.org/static/calendar.html or from any page on the VCDL web site (www.vcdl.org) click on the VCDL Calendar link on the right hand side of the page.

Once on the calendar, you can click on an entry for more details including maps, times, contact information, links to web sites with coupons or entry forms, and other pertinent items.

You can also copy individual events to your personal calendar.

We are asking for your assistance with this project. If you belong to a club and would like your events posted on the VCDL calendar, all we ask is that you make our membership applications available to those attending your event. If you do not organize the event personally, please talk to the person who does and ask them to consider participating. We will ship you everything you need, including a holder, brochures and current CHP law wallet card. These displays come with a sticker containing instructions on replenishing supplies.

The goal of this project is to establish a central location where VCDL members can access information important to them and stay on top of current events. We hope you find this useful and informative, and that you will actively participate by sending notices of your club/range functions. Thanks to each of you for all you do. VCDL is truly a grass roots organization and is made strong and effective by the individual efforts of all our members!

Send details of your events to Pat.Webb@vcdl.org and be sure to include the shipping address so we can send you our membership display!

Union Sportsmen’s Alliance Unveils State-of the-Art Shooting Events Truck & Trailer

Union Sportsmen’s Alliance Unveils State-of the-Art Shooting Events Truck & Trailer

Union Sportsmen’s Alliance

Nashville, TN --(Ammoland.com)- The Union Sportsmen’s Alliance (USA) unveiled its new shooting events truck and trailer to nearly 200 Union members, leaders, contractors and family members at its 3rd Annual Capital Area Sporting Clays Shoot outside Washington, D.C. earlier this month.

Equipped with a 50’’ flat screen TV and full PA system, the truck and trailer will serve as the primary staging area for the USA’s events—doubling as a mobile office, retail location and storehouse.

“The USA is always looking for unique ways to bring added benefits to our members,” said USA Director of Recruitment and National Events, Nate Whiteman. “With the mobility of the new shooting events truck and trailer, we can literally bring the action right to their doorstep.”

Traveling to 16 markets in 12 states, the truck and trailer will cover nearly 10,000 miles during the summer and fall of 2011. When not employed at various sporting clays and trap shoots, Union conventions, and industry conferences, it will be showcased outside Union locals throughout the country.

Serving as a rolling billboard for the USA, the Chevy 3500 HD and 32 foot trailer feature graphics designed by Mark Richmond Graphic Design and wrapped by The Kelly Companies using state-of-the-art, long-term adhesive vinyl and glossy laminate.

The shooting events truck and trailer was made possible through the generous support of the AFL-CIO Building Investment Trust, Buck Knives, Lincoln Electric, Mechanical Allied Crafts, Pat O’Brien Chevrolet, Sportsman Channel, The Kelly Companies, Union Insurance Group and ULLICO.

“The USA’s new truck and trailer is another great example of how our corporate partners are joining together to help us offer unparalleled interactions with members,” said USA Deputy Director Mike D’Oliveira. “Their invaluable assistance paired with the support of 11 International Unions allows us to continue to grow and expand our organization and conservation efforts throughout North America.”
