Vernon and Jon,

I have a 48" 50# at 28" Pearson Equilizer Recurve to send. What is the best way and address to ship? I can throw in some arrows as well.

Raging Water, yes that's the address. Thanks for helping out. I was scared you were going to send one of your Elephant Killers. Lol! I expect that was one of your son's bows.

Raging Water · October 16, 2010, 09:13:00 PM

My wife's! LOL

Matt,
Thats the address. Your father sent some really nice thanks you notes to the donors. I read one at the Vet hunt last week. I will get an e-mail out to you this week.

Dannybows your shirt is on the way tomorrow.

I got a box of stuff ready, gonna wait til I see a buddy tomorrow and see if he wants to add anything.

Raging Water · October 17, 2010, 10:53:00 PM

Ishiwannabe,

Do you want to combine my bow and your box? I will split shipping? Send my a PM.

For that matter, anyone else want to ship to Camp Cuervo? Combine shipping?

Send me a PM

Matt

Just a note here that if anyone is having trouble with the cost of shipping let me know.
The lady who was featured in Traditional Archer Magazine that sent all the equipment from her archery shop over to Iraq we helped her by taking on the expenses of shipping.
I need proof of shipping to an APO from the post office copy of course and there are times we are also just to broke to help out but if we have it we use it to help get archery equipment over as well.
We are all working together in this and I appreciate all the help CCAC has recieved from everyone.

DannyBows · October 18, 2010, 08:24:00 PM

The 3pc bow and other gear I mailed last week was only $7.53 to ship. I thought it would be more and assumed there was a special rate to APO/FPO's. Still getting the rest of the gear together to ship.

I received a nice "Thank You" from Vernon Pratt in the mail today. They are very grateful for the archery equipment that is being sent to them.
I knew that TradGang would come through for them. It doesn't end here, when these service men and women come home they will be needing us to invite them over to shoot and take hunting. Whatever we can do to show our appreciation for their service.

Dang, looks like y'all need some quivers!

KumaSan · October 28, 2010, 08:49:00 AM

Spectre, good point on the quivers. I believe I have one or two to send.

Jack Skinner · October 28, 2010, 09:13:00 AM

Got my Camp Cuervo t-shirt in the mail just the other day. I will wear it proudly every chance I get at every archery event I go to.

Now to look thru all my old stuff and see what can help.

DannyBows · October 28, 2010, 11:07:00 AM

I also just got my T-Shirt from Jon Stewart and really love it. I, like Jack, will be proudly wearing mine to any Archery event I go to. Good catch on the quivers Spectre, I'll include a couple of the simple camo belt quivers with my Fletching Package.

DannyBows · October 30, 2010, 10:34:00 PM

Sgt. Pratt, I got the Thank You note and Certificate today. I have to admit it touched me deeply and instantly became one of my prized possessions. Thank You for taking the time. I also have another box or two to get out. Please make sure you inform us before you Rotate and pass along the contact info for after that. God Bless and Be Safe.

MP1SG · October 30, 2010, 11:42:00 PM

You are very welcome, I wish I could do more. I am looking for an address for Ming-I Sun who sent some really awesome bamboo arrows; I unfortunately shredded the return address. Also I want to say thank you again to Jon Stewart and John Vasos for the shirts; I have seen a picture of my son wearing one and they look awesome. The shirts must bring some luck as my son tagged his first archery deer on Saturday.

JDVasos · October 31, 2010, 10:34:00 AM

MP1SG you are fortunate to have such a great family here in Michigan. The interview with the Romeo Observer went well as we talked about an hour an a half. I thought about things I missed saying but you and the fallen soldier from Camp Cuervo, Iraq where the main topic (along with everyone I could think of that supports us).
I have no idea how the story will come across in the paper but will let you know when it comes out.
I am proud of you and all those who have entered my life in one way or the other.
Glad the t-shirt brought some luck to your son, but since I don't believe in luck I will have to believe it was due to the upbringing over the years from his Dad.
Congratulations to the young man.
For God and Country, my friend...

All of you who now are sporting the new Camp Cuervo T-shirts email me your picture in it. The winner of this t-shirt contest, lets say by December 1st will get one mailed to anywhere he wants it to go. I will post the pictures on the Camp Cuervo Archery Club face book page as well. Jon Stewart and I will decide who the winner is to make this t-shirt contest simple and unbiased as well as fair and balanced...
