Well,

These are the links to the local papers. I don't know if there is a specific link to the Editorial pages or not. I doubt that there is anything in these papers yet. I was merely attempting to encourage people to write to the local papers to protest this action by the staff of the campground.

I called the campground earlier today to ask the name of the gunslinger. I spoke to the self proclaimed owner of the campground who offered the following information. Paraphrased:

'The campground is closed at Christmas.' (This is directly in contradiction to their web which boasts that they are open year round.)

She (the supposed owner) asked me my name, which I proudly gave her. She would not reveal either her name or the name of the sharpshooter. She then told me that my facts were wrong, and hung up abruptly.

For clarification, this unfortunate incident happened to a member of our club 'Snoopy', and not to myself.
