NMLRA Gunsmithing Seminar Cancelled
« on: April 22, 2020, 04:01:21 AM »
I just saw this on the NMLRA website:

COVID 19 Update from the NMLRA

Western Kentucky University Longrifle Seminar Sponsored by the National Muzzle Loading Rifle Association

Presenters and Participants for the 2020 Seminar,
Since March, I have been concerned about the status of our scheduled seminar to begin on June 3rd of this year. My intention was to wait until the first of May to make the decision to either continue with the seminar as planned, or to cancel it for this year.
After discussion with participants, presenters, Officials at the NMLRA, input from the various news channels, and surrounding state travel policies, I have decided to cancel the seminar scheduled for this year (2020). This was my decision alone, with complete support from the NMLRA.

Editor’s Note: Terry has reached out to each of the participants on their options to extend to next year, or receive a refund. If you are a participant, please check your email for Terry’s information.

Currently Western Kentucky University is closed until August 24th which is the beginning of the fall 2020 semester, and there are no university plans up to and beyond the 24th. As you can see, I really had no choice about cancelling the seminar on June 3rd, 2020. I did think about rescheduling the seminar between the end of the summer term and beginning of the fall semester, but I was afraid the logistics of a change would be beyond our control at that point in time.

Currently the NMLRA office is closed, but they hope to open the second week of May. At that time, you can either call Brenda Hooton with your decision (812 667 5131) or email her at nmlra@nmlra.org.
I hope this note finds all of you well during this unexpected pandemic!

Sincerely,
H. Terry Leeper – terry.leeper@wku.edu

Another great sadness brought about from Covid19!  >:(  Thanks for posting.  I have updated the class announcement sticky note at the top of this forum.
