We have a youth opportunity coming up in a couple of weeks in Bloomington, Illinois.   Darnall's Gun Works  & Ranges are holding their 20th annual NRA Youth Shooters Camp July 24 - 27.

The NRA Youth Shooting Camp at Darnall's is the longest-running NRA Youth Shooting Camp in the nation....and they have decided to give Appleseed Saturday and Sunday to instruct the Rifle Line.




What's needed:
  Roughly 8-12 rifle instructors to help five groups of 28-30 shooters each over Saturday and Sunday only.  We will have approximately 2:00 - 2:15 hours each "session". 


Anyone who is available is welcome to come help instruct.  Camping is available for those who choose to come in Friday night. Food will be provided Saturday & Sunday along with the opportunity to tell Young Patriot History and possibly a LibertySeed Saturday night.

Equipment / Loaners would help to standardize the line if available.

Please contact Mutti or Steck  with the Days, Day or Partial Day you will be able to assist.

Come be part of this :

"Our forefathers gave us a better way to refresh the Tree of Liberty. If we give our blood and sweat now,  willingly, by using the political and social processes they secured for us with their lives, maybe our own Posterity will never have to unwillingly spill their blood and tears to re-secure their Liberty.
