    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!

    I talked to the boss (Katie), and we're 99% sure we can do Friday. At least one of us could probably be freed up for another shift over the weekend, but we'll wait and see what gaps there are (hopefully there won't be any:innocent0) and fill in where needed.

    Thanks. I'm going to try and make it on Friday night if we don't have snow.

    Oh well, my wife asked me to take her to the mall, so no Belair show for me this year.

    Come on out and give some support to this local show. Sunday needs coverage! And it lets out plenty early to not take up your entire day.

    Great opportunity for our MSI brethren from up North . Staffing the Booth is enjoyable, rewarding , and provides a sense of worthwhile accomplishments .

    If you're otherwise coming by the Show tommorow , drop in for an hour or two to get your feet wet . You'll have a cpl experienced volunteers there to show you the ropes .
