just a note to westeners and club / festival organisers that the first ever gun marshal carde is to take place this year. followed by two more dates to be announced for next year at a designated venue ,one in the north one in the south .
the gun marshal carde is a one day course that covers gun etiqute saftey strip and assemble and how to maintain and repair as well as how to correctly marshal events .
there are no places left for this year but i will start taking names for next year ,its free and recognized and backed by the BWA ,UKWF AND LS .
A certificate is given on completion ,the course is being organised by a former police firearms officer and two fomer x servicemen all re-enactors.

Hi guys , a post to let you all know that the first gun marshal cader /course was held in the lecture room on the 13th of august at the 3 counties showground in great malvern .
20 re-enactors took the course and all enjoyed it giving good feed back and having learnt something about gun maintainence and saftey etc.

the next gun marshal cadre will be held next year again at great malvern where the western event is held at.
Lonestar who organize this cadre are very busy with events so we can only gaurentee the one gun marshal carde for next year but there is a chance we may hold one at easter in the north east ,date time and place will be posted on confirmation .

Warners who organize the western show event have asked me to pass on there praise and thanks to the 8 gun marshals who insured that saftey was adhered too through out this event .

jUst over 20,000 ppl attended the event over 5 days ,all tickets and pitches were sold and at a little over 30 pounds for 2 adults and up to 3 children its a bargain .

cheers wyatt

Nice to see something possitive happening in the hobby. This latest move with the gun marshals adds another piece of professionalism in my opinion. To all concerned - keep up the good work.

Cheers all.

Marshal
