Unfortunately the event often goes unmentioned.  ???

It doesn't show up in the StarAdvertiser's local events calendar (I've submitted twice already) and it's not in the MidWeek. The HRA website seems to be the only one and doesn't have a Facebook link.

There are Public Service Announcements that go out on the TV and Radio, don't cost anything AFAIK (except maybe the tape you record on) which can be done at Olelo.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but IIRC, there are some "politics" involved in getting your spots aired.

Yep, they'll put just about anything on Olelo. I've always wanted to see the shooting community do a "Gun Talk" program that runs through ALL the events, safe handling practices, etc. The studio/offices is in Mapunapuna by 99 Ranch, Sony, Young Guns...

Not sure about politics, but I did hear a quick "commercial" for the fair on 101.9 this morning. As for Olelo, they'll run it if it's informative and/or educational.

While driving home tonight there was an ad on the radio for the shooting fair.
