njdave 0 Posted August 10, 2014 Hi my name is Dave, I have been a member at cherry ridge for a few years now and have been wondering why the club never has an IDPA match. I contacted the president and was told that volunteers would be needed. So iam wondering if there would be any interest, and in all honesty I have no idea what iam doing. I would love to start something and make use of the range by bringing something new to the mix. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pizza Bob 1,488 Posted August 11, 2014 There are a lot of IDPA shooters in the northern part of the state. There are also several matches already within their reach - but I'm sure that something directly within their midst would be a bonus. You just don't want to conflict with already existing matches and dilute their base of shooters. Maybe come out and attend/participate in some IDPA matches to help you decide the direction in which to go. There is a match at Somerset (SCFGPA) this coming Sunday (8/17) and there are still slots open (must pre-register). Good luck in your endeavor. Adios, Pizza Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njdave 0 Posted August 11, 2014 You know iam sorry, but I didn't even think about screwing up somebody else's plans. Maybe I will come out on Sunday. Iam only in Piscataway. Thanks for the invite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pizza Bob 1,488 Posted August 11, 2014 I didn't post that to scare you off the idea - just to let you know that you should give some consideration to other clubs running matches that service the same area. Here is where to register for the Somerset match... http://www.somersetidpa.com/matches/ If you just want to spectate, no need to register, but make sure you have eyes & ears. Adios, Pizza Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Candyman87 10 Posted August 30, 2014 Interested in IDPA but never got around to joining Cherry Ridge. This may be the straw on the camel's back I've needed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Howard 538 Posted August 30, 2014 There should not be a reason you have to be a member to compete. Any IDPA or USPSA match I have ever been to is open to anyone that wants to attend. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
