Help the U.S. Int'l Muzzle-Loading Team w/Amazon Smile

For those of you who do your shopping on Amazon.com, there's a way you can help the U.S. International Muzzle Loading Team at no cost.

Amazon Smile (smile.amazon.com) is a setup that donates part of your purchase - it's a fraction of 1% - to a charity of your choice. And the USIMLT just got onboard with it.

It takes a lot of money to send even a single competitor to the World Muzzle-Loading Championships. Registration fees for a single competitor ran over $100 at the 2016 Worlds...plus per-match fees. Powder was $40/lb...and you can't fly with gunpowder. Which leaves us with a funding shortfall - every American shooter at the 2016 World Championships paid his own travel expenses, plus a bill for $300 for match fees.

So if you could see fit to sign up, we would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi Mike. My wife and I use Amazon a lot, and we use Amazon Smile. I'll switch our charity choice to the team. Thanks for the headsup!
