Rochester, IN July 6-7, 2013 AAR

[AuntieBellum]

What a fantastic weekend!  Rain - because we couldn't have an event at Rochester any other way - sun, gun powder, and smiles.  We had a BLAST!  Literally - right, guys?   

We made some noise, we hammered out a new Rifleman - huzzah to Gary! - and we saw a lot of improvement.  Families, military members...we want them all on the line.  Tony fired a firearm for the first time this weekend and did his share of work in the....uhhhh...louder sections of the day, too!  Duncan and Dreyton showed us that age makes no difference on the line, and Tyler - so close!  Keep at it, come on back with friends and family, and let's do it again!

Most importantly, we had engaged citizens out to experience our Freedom on a holiday weekend - Independence Day weekend.  They know when the American Revolution was won, though, right?  Right?  I'm SURE you all remember the answer!

Thank you, all.  It was my pleasure to share the weekend with you.  I look forward to seeing you all back again soon.

Pics...later.

A fantastic weekend it was! I had a great time as I'm sure everyone did. I can't wait to do it again and share the experience with someone else.  I came not knowing what to expect and left with knowledge of marksmanship (there is so much more than point and shoot) and a reinforced pride in our country.

Thanks to each of you that made this weekend something that I will never forget.

Tyler, we look forward to having you back.  Thank you for joining us!

And Gary and Dreyton - I think I found the AAR from your first event.  Is that you, Dreyton?  http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=17758.0  Don't wait so long to come back next time.

Looks to have been a great Appleseed.   

Well done to the youth who participated & well done to the instructor corp who made it happen
