Hi Dogmeat Dad,
When are the dates for the 2018 Eastern Divisional please.?
And when you have them can you advise the SASS office to put them up on the Shooting Events page.
We are planning a longer trip east next year and the earlier we know the better.
Many thanks,
Jack

Jackaroo,
Glad to hear you may be heading east of the Mississippi again and we would love to have you back at the Stampede. We made some big changes last year and the event was very well received. Much remains to make it the match I want it to be, but we are off to a very good start.
While it may seem later than normal this year, it is just the result of vagaries of the calendar. We always end on the 1st Sunday in October and for 2017 it was the Oct 1st, but for 2018 it is on Oct 7th. That said, for 2018, the primary dates for the Eastern Divisional will be as follows, but obviously we are still working out the details.
4 Oct 2018 - Thur - Side Match Day
5 Oct 2018 - Fri - Main Match Day #1
6 Oct 2018 - Sat - Main Match Day #2
In 2017, we held the Awards Ceremony on Saturday Night off site at a local American Legion and it seemed to be very well received. I am anticipating that we will do that again for 2018. The only disappointment with that schedule is that the Top Gun Shoot-Off on Sunday was very poorly attended. I certainly understand that folks want to hit the road for home (or their next shooting event) but I felt bad for the folks that earned their place in the Shoot-Off. Still trying to figure that how to fix that.
I will forward this on to SASS also. They should have it already, but the wheels of HQ sometimes come off the rails!
Looking forward to your "potential" revisit.
Dogmeat
