NRA Carry-Guard Expo Cancelled Due to Hurricane Florence

No Carry-Guard Convention this weekend boys and girls — there’s a Hurricane coming…

NRA Carry Guard Expo in Richmond CANCELLED
Ahead of Forecasted Landfall of Hurricane Florence
RICHMOND, Va. – The National Rifle Association (NRA) has cancelled the second annual NRA Carry Guard Expo, which was scheduled for Sept. 14-16, 2018 at the Greater Richmond Convention Center in Richmond, Virginia, due to the impending threat of severe weather associated with Hurricane Florence. The hurricane is now predicted to make landfall on the North Carolina coast late Thursday.

In a press release, the NRA stated:
“The cancellation was made in the interest of public safety due to the forecasted arrival of Category 4 Hurricane Florence in the mid-Atlantic region this forthcoming weekend, and the resulting declaration of a State of Emergency by the Governor of Virginia. This decision required careful deliberation and concern for the safety of attendees, exhibitors and others involved with the event.

Customers who purchased event tickets or tickets to paid workshops will receive refunds for their purchases.

Despite this major weather event being beyond human control, the NRA regrets any inconvenience caused by this decision. We look forward to welcoming guests and exhibitors next year to the 2019 NRA Carry Guard Expo, scheduled for Sept. 6-8, 2019, in Fort Worth, Texas.”

Refund Process — How It Will Work
Regarding refunds, the Carry Guard Expo website states: “If you bought tickets, you will receive a full refund on any show admission, workshop(s), and Concealed Carry Fashion Show tickets purchased, as well as the ticket convenience fee (if applicable). NOTE: There is no action required on your part. Refunds will automatically be applied to the credit card used by the customer at the time of purchase. Please allow up to 5 business days for processing.”
