Steve,(Johnson),
I'm not sure who you are but I for one always said "I Hope/(wish) the State keeps the WSRC open and operating so they can pick up the tab" and no body gets anymore stupid ideas ... If I was a hater you would know it without any mistakes or abbreviations ... I still feel that way but do not feel its fair for the tax payers of the State of Illinois to pick up the deficit, so it would have to be spread around a little bit ... That of course would mean additional cost to all who attend any and all events at the facility ... Kind of like "Pay as you go" to take the heat off of the tax payers and others who want to benefit and enjoy the facility and HOF also ... I don't think the Moderators will delete your post being as it is partially accurate when you say we can get on with life, which we have been for a long time, actually since right after the ATA moved to Sparta ... There are many shooters who are not "Haters" realistically, that will not support the ATA since the ATA started down the path to destruction ... They (we) were told to stay away that we were not needed which turned out to be totally untrue as it turns out ... WPT ... (YAC) ... (Your Arizona Connection) ...

Honest to God, "WE LOVE YOU MAN "..!
We accept the fact you have probably been mislead by a few people who we do not agree with on many issues and matters, but none the less we take into account that you probably don't know what your talking about anyway and only going by what you have been told ... Take into account some of those who voice the strongest support are the ones who have provided the least amount of support over the course of time and the years ... There are people who never set foot in Vandalia, Ohio who will tell you how much better the facility in Sparta is when they really have nothing as in "NOTHING" to base that on ... Get in, sit down, shut up and hold on, this is going to be a ride you will remember for a long time ... Your Bestest Buddy, WPT ... (YAC) ...

 

The best part of the Sparta (ATA) shooting facility is the back ground at every trap, no bad traps and the fact that you have enough space to park behind you traps not much walking. It in my opinion deteriorates from there, permanate vendors are separated well away from the tent vendors and you could go the whole time you are there and not run into anyone you know. To get to a decent motel/hotel involves a great deal of driving time especially after a long day of shooting. There are restraurents in Sparta that are good and also in the general vicinity of the motels/hotels that you spend a great deal of time driving to. The facility has not lived up to its promotion, build it and they will come has not happened and never will. The WSRC may host the 2016 Grand and maybe at an increased cost to the attendees but the attendance will continue to decline.
