    If you're a first-timer, there is good info here:

    https://www.marylandshallissue.org/...ry/4-public-documents/56-msi-show-primer-2018


    Volunteers get free admission to the show. (And there's nothing to prevent a little shopping before or after your shift.) Another thing worth mentioning, some vendors, upon seeing you have a vendor badge, will give a few $$ off a purchase. Not all vendors will do this, but it could be an added bonus for volunteers.

    MSI now also has a volunteer incentive program, if you volunteer for a total of four shifts at gun shows (all day Saturday or Sunday counts as two shifts) you will get a FREE membership renewal!

    Saturday .


    Folks , with the most recent Bills introduced , the s$#! got extra Real . We can anticipate major interest from the Public about recent developments , and we will need lots of manpower to field their inquires .

    Here on MDS I see lots of new members just joining . I especially encourage Nineteener's to come out and help this weekend . It's enjoyable and personally rewarding, and more important than ever . Experenced members will be on hand to show you the ropes . If you can't make it for a whole shift , or your schedule is in the air, come by for an hour or two when you can . Just show up , I'll bring plenty of nametags .

    This is a great opportunity , with lots of fringe benefits for fresh talent getting on their outreach and advocacy chops .

    I personally offer a special bonus for either first timers , or people who haven't volunteered at an event within the past year , who put in a shift equivalent . Early, late, swing, or broken into chunks , whatever works for you

    Reinforcements on the way!

    See you at the table this afternoon.

    With the legislative onslaught we face in MD, the first table you should stop at is our MSI table because it’s now or never...

    Great day for a gun show!

    Come on by and visit with ShafTed and me and drop in some extra cash for the Storm that is coming.

    We are not proud and not above asking Virginians to give us a hand financially....

    Here, a former Marylander (respecting his wish for privacy because he lives in N. VA) is joining MSI because he recognizes we are in the fight of our lives.

    And we are asking CURRENT MSI members visiting with us today to throw down $10 toward the lawsuit fund because we are going to need it.

    Thank you MSI member rsomers53 from Frederick for going all in!
