    I did not realize the kids have been forced to help pay the bill for the HOF building which is owned by the State of Illinois.

    The children have additional fees added at shoots such as the AIM, Grand and US Open.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    I report. You decide.

    You Hall of Famers must be proud. You have children paying extra so you can see your pictures on the wall. How many kid pictures are in that building?

    Why not force the kids also, their parents are paying anyway.

    They may as well get the shaft like the rest of us donors did.

    I have heard the rumor that the Horse Barn has now been paid for.

    Can anyone confirm this ?

    I didn't hear about any mortgage burning celebration out there.

    They could charge 2 bits to enter. No one enters.

    I seriously doubt any of the Shooters who have been Enshrined in the ATA HOF are aware or would they condone the kids paying for said building especially since it it owned by the State Of Illinois and not the ATA of HOF ... The ATA and or HOF (Bradford) more than likely had their hands in this mess as a way to settle a debt that was not the Members debt in the first place ... The ATA, & HOF are rapidly becoming the Swamp as referred to over the past few years ... Members have had charges slipped in on them more than once over the past many years so this is probably a continuation of more of the ATA or HOF's sneaky moves ... WPT ... (YAC) ...

    The whole Sparta thing sounds like an HOA.

    If the ATA is sending out free rejoin membership e-mails are they going to allow all the SCTP kids to shoot for free this year? It seems to me that would be the honorable thing to do.
