NRA 76th director campaign

I see NY State Rifle & Pistol Club isendorsing Bob Viden for 76th NRA director. The flyer on him is here (pdf).

The flyer outlines his qualifications in terms of shooting and promoting shooting, but for some reason omits the fact that he's chair of the NRA Board's Range Development Committee, handling all issues related to creation of more shooting ranges. I've attended Board meetings for ten years or more, and he's never failed to show up and carry his load. If you're going to St. Louis, stop by the voting booth during the meeting and cast one for Bob.

[For those who aren't familiar with the 76th director concept: 75 directors are elected by mail in ballot. The 76th is elected at the annual meeting. I think any life member or 5 yr member who attends can cast a ballot.]
