Western Regional Report: January - February 2020

Happy New Year everyone! My name is Allison Hammes and I have been the Western Region Representative for gun show Recruiters for the past year, and with NRA Recruiting Programs for almost 3 years. As you may have seen, we recently reorganized the recruiting department and I will now be the Recruiter Representative for all Recruiters residing in the western region – which has also expanded to include Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, and Oklahoma. Having worked in the supportive role of Program Assistant for almost 2 years and alongside David Helmer and Aaron Michael, I am confident that this will be a smooth transition.

As we kick off an election year I just want to remind you all of some of the basics –

• Make sure you’re sending in all membership apps within a week of completing them.
• Double check all applications before sending them in to make sure they are complete and legible.
• Replace any battered tabletop displays to keep your membership display professional.
• If you’re attending or hosting a larger event and think you’ll need extra supplies, check in with me so I can ensure your order is approved and an appropriate amount of item are sent to you.

We are currently in the midst of our winter show season, so I will be in and out of the office for the next few months but please don’t hesitate to reach out to me, whether it’s to get answers to questions, voice any concerns, or just to chat. My cell number is 202-697-3967, feel free to call or text while I’m out of the office. I look forward to getting to know all the XI, XC, XR, and XS Recruiters and working with you all to strengthen our membership base out West!
