THE MATCH HAS BEEN CANCELLED

We regret to inform everyone that the match has been cancelled due to lack of registrations. As of July 31st, 2006 less than half the minimum number of 50 competitors are registered. With the low number of registrations, the match is simply a financially unviable this year.

We feel that if we wait any longer to cancel the match, the people who have registered will be even more upset, and there is no guarantee that we would get enough shooters. Due to several competing events (which we did not know about until well after our match was scheduled) being held the same weekend, it is unlikely we would get enough competitors registered anyway.

We will be refunding the money to the people who’s checks we have cashed and credit cards we have run. There are some who’s cards we did not run, and checks not cashed. All registered shooters will be contacted on an individual basis.

Prizes will be returned to all the sponsors.

TJ from Tiger Valley tells me he will be holding a match the same weekend we planned to, so that people with travel arrangements and time off work already planned will still have an event to go to. Contact info for TIGER Valley can be found at www.tigervalley.com

Canceling the match this year was a difficult decision for us to make as we enjoy spending time with fellow shooters and competing in the match ourselves.

We are currently in talks with several different groups interested in running a match under the rules we created and with the same style, where Cavalry Arms will simply be the major match sponsor and help with advertising. This would be the ideal situation for us, as running a match takes a lot of time out of our production schedule, and we feel the best way for us to be involved in the shooting sports is as a generous sponsor.

Thank you for your understanding,
