General Info

The 2009 Mason Dixon Stampede, is the official SASS N. E. Regional Championship of Cowboy Action Shooting and also the SASS N. E. Regional Championship of Mounted Cowboy action shooting..

The match will be held at the Thurmont Conservation and Sportsman's Club (TCSC) in Thurmont, Maryland from October 1 through October 4, 2009. Directions to TCSC.

There will be side matches, team shoots, posse shoots, a 3 Stage blast, RO Classes, the N. E. Regional Mounted Championship, a Territorial Governors Meeting, camping, and a Saturday Banquet along with tons of fun and Cowboy Action Shooing!

Our targets are big and close and stages will be designed to be easily understood. There is no need to make your shooting fantasy a memory contest.

If you cannot participate in the main match, we have a conventioneer entry that allows you to participate in all of the events except the main match. All conventioneers, main match and mounted shooters must be SASS members, in good standing, in order to participate.

SASS rules will apply and all SASS categories will be recognized.

The public is invited to attend free of charge but, we do ask that you bring ear and eye protection.

Applications for shooters, vendors and sponsors are available through the links on this page. Should you have any questions, that are not answered by the web site, use the contacts listed on the various forms.

For those that like to camp, we have some primitive camping sites with no hookups as well as plenty of camp sites complete with water and electricity. Our club house has showers. We also have a dumping station. With the historical Monocacy River flowing past the campsites, it is a wonderful setting, with a large star filled sky at night. Located 30 minutes south of Gettysburg Pennsylvania, the area is rich in historical sights, yet far away from the congestion of Washington, DC.

Please come and renew old friendships, visit some of our country's civil war history and have fun shooting our fantasy game!
