Conundrum.....

I have been busier than a long legged cat in a room full of rocking chairs, I have Cub Scout  day camp, coming up, My son is now in Boy Scouts and he will be on staff.  I am running a "BB" range.  I almost decided to quit last year because I was getting burned out by this and the few volunteers that step up.  We have many people that carp and criticize but when the chips are down, are "unavailable".  I know that is how it is but it does get old.
    I keep telling myself that I am helping out the next generation of shooters in the sport to keep it alive for the new generation to come and eventually be the next shooters for the Olympics, the service, or just people that have a love of the sport and it is something that is uniquely American.

This is circling the internet and I figured I would post it.
