<>GNRS is an
acronym
for the Grand National Relic Shootout. The GNRS is
an
annual relic hunt founded by Larry Cissna (TR) in 1998. Teams consist
of
individuals using their preferred brand of Detector, in an
organized
competitive relic hunt. The number of members on each team may change
year-to-year
due to site circumstances. Presently the teams stand at 16 members
each.
The hunt takes place on a real, un-seeded, relic site.
The purpose of
the GNRS is to promote the hobby of
metal
detecting, and provide fellowship among detectorists from all facets of
the hobby. The GNRS is managed by a committee who plans and organizes
the
hunt each year. The committee is set up to be flexible and the
committee
membership may change as the need arises; however, the core of
the
board is composed of three members: Larry Cissna serves as the GNRS
committee
chairman, Jim Yates is the GNRS Secretary. and Burt Alderson who serves
as the head officiating judge and is in control of all situations
arising
at the hunt site. Each of these committee members have specific
duties, that they perform to
bring about the event. As the
hunt
evolves, other members may be added as needed to help the committee
produce
the GNRS event in an organized and efficient manner. Currently:
Mike King, Ken Cissna, Jim
Yates, Bruce Purpura,
Jeff Harris, Peter Eles, Dennis farrer, Dave Suiter, Marshall Caine and
Richard Green
are
sitting committee members who help to organize the hunt. All
appointments
to the committee will be made by the GNRS founder, and Chairman, Larry
Cissna.
