Landsend match ?

Is there a HV/LV match at Landsend this coming weekend (May 30-31)?

There is nothing on the schedule for Lands End until July 18-19 UNL and SP. According to the schedule Raton, NM is shooting the same weekend, the Muchas Gracias. Seems weird! Maybe Tom or Ed will see this and comment.

They had their spring shoot a little early this year. It was a couple weeks before the Springville match. Joe told me why it happened that way but I can't remember what it was exactly. Something about Tom being busy on the normal weekend.

Mid Continent region has a jam packed schedule. Lots of shoots all summer long it seems. There's always somewhere to go. That's not a bad problem to have!

Land's End, Northern Colorado (Ault), Springville UT, PDTC (Deckert's-Porcupine SD), and Raton have about 10-15 overlapping shooters that try to make 'em all -- add in that these ranges are represented by three different regions and some scheduling is driven by floating holidays and the calendar becomes a real hassle. This year is pretty mixed up because Memorial Day arrived a week early, Labor Day is late, and now the weather is causing delays - Porcupine 5/30 shoot was rain delayed to 6/6.

NOTE: The last two shoots at Porcupine/Ault are pushed up a week this year due to conflicts with the Nationals (Porcupine on 8/29-30 and the Ault Firewalker on 9/5-6)

*Normal* scheduling would be something like this... (add in the a couple shoots at Billings, the Cactus, the East-West and the Nationals and you can fill up the whole summer)!

Springville- First weekend in May
Land's End - Third weekend in May
Raton - Memorial Day (typically last weekend in May)
Porcupine - weekend after Memorial Day (typically first weekend in June)
Ault - second weekend in June
Raton - third weekend in June
Porcupine - July 4th Holiday Weekend
** Land End & Raton July shoots I've never really figured out - (second/third/fourth weekends in July). **
Springville - First weekend in August
Raton (Rattlesnake) - Third weekend in August
Porcupine - Labor Day Weekend (typically first weekend on Sept)
Ault (Firewalker) - second weekend on Sept
Land's End (Purple Haze) - first weekend in Oct
