The National Rifle Association?s 139th Annual Meeting & Exhibits will be held in downtown Charlotte, North Carolina on May 14 ? 16th. If you?re in the upstate of South Carolina it?s not that bad of a trip, but if you?re in other parts of the state, it?s worth the ride! The events will be held at the Convention Center which is just a few blocks away from the Panther?s stadium. (See Google Map to location).
I might add that if you are going to attend the convention, then you may want to stop in and check out the NASCAR Hall of Fame which is also a few blocks from the Convention Center. It is brand new and is just now finishing construction. It looks likeNRA members and guests get an exclusive visit. I can tell you that it?s an impressive building and that they?ve been working on it for a good while now. How do I know this, because I literally ride right by the building every day going into and out of work! I?ve almost hit some of those construction workers as they dart across the road to get to the job site in the daunting Charlotte traffic. That brings up another good point?if you?re going to come to the event, be ready for some one way roads that change names whenever they want to coupled with chaotic downtown traffic in Charlotte.
The weekend looks like it?s packed with events such as member meetings, celebration forums, speeches from key note speakers Sean Hannity, and Speaker Newt Gingrich with special addresses by Wayne LaPierre, Chris Cox, Lt. Colonel Oliver North, and Ted Neugent is going to be on hand and will give a seminar. There will also be a prayer breakfast where my old Liberty University chancellor?s son, Johnathan Falwell, will give the keynote address with music by Charles Billingsley, Joy Lippard, and the Children of the World choir. If you?ve ever heard Charles Billingsley sing before then you know that he is the truth! He sang when I was at Liberty and he was very good.
And the list of events goes on and on with auctions, firearms seminars, tours, shooting and defense seminars, workshops, etc.
