We currently have a total of 714 members of the 1 of 1,000 Endowment. The
minimum goal for 2019 is a total of at least 750 members. Clinton Byers, of The
Honourable Company of Horners, created the 2018 1 of 1,000 Powder Horn.
This horn was won by drawing, by Eric Blanton, of Illinois in June 2019 at the
National Spring Shoot.
The annual 1 of 1,000 Match will be held immediately following the opening
ceremonies for the 2019 National Championship Shoot Sept. 14, 2019, at the
offhand range, in front of the Clubhouse. Max Vickery's .54 Hawken will be
available for those members wishing to use it for the match. All 1 of 1,000
members are invited and encouraged to participate.
You are invited to a special reception for 1 of 1,000 members to be held at
Friendship, Indiana during the 2019 National Championship Shoot in
September. The reception will be held in the Rand House at 6pm on Saturday
September 14, 2019. Light refreshments will be served. Please plan to attend
and enjoy the company of other like-minded NMLRA members who have acted
to insure the survival of our muzzle loading heritage.
Pete Wygant has graciously donated one of his beautiful, hand-crafted gun boxes
as the door prize. Please help spread the word about the reception to fellow 1 of 1,000 members.
You must be present to win.
Sincerely,
Robert E. Copner, Chairman 1 of 1,000 Endowment Committee
