A big THANK YOU! to Beaver Valley Rifle and Pistol Club for their support of Appleseed.

13 Americans turned out to learn more about their Heritage and Marksmanship.  Mike G. scored Rifleman at his fourth Appleseed, CONGRATULATIONS!

Lance G. also shot score with a 216.  I apologize for not seeing the double and the delay in your recognition Lance.

While not shooting the score Mark cleared 3 Redcoats and Mike E. one.  Great job guys!

Two young Patriots stuck out the hot and steamy weekend performing admirably.

Thanks to EZ3, Texas T, Fullmetal Rifleman and Raybiker73 for making this such a smooth running shoot.

Thank you,

More to come,

Chuck

Last evening, it occurred to me that when a defender of Liberty is called home, their load lands upon the shoulders of the defenders left behind. Just as the Founders did their duty for Liberty, every subsequent generation must continue their work lest Liberty perish. As there is no way for the remaining adults to take on the work of those that die, we must pass the ideals and duties on to the children. -PHenery

I just want to say a heartfelt "Thank you!" to EZ3, Texas T, Fullmetal Rifleman and Charles McKinley for making my first event as an Orange Hat a pleasant and valuable experience. Thanks!

Ray,

Raybiker, welcome to the team.  You are in great hands with folks like Chuck, EZ3, Texas T and Fullmetal Rifleman.  They will train you up in no time.  Remember, Riflemen are made by other Riflemen who have gone before.  Huzzah, another link in the chain.

PS, no, Chuck, you can't keep Texas T all to yourself.   **)
Be bold, brave and forthright and the bold, the brave and the forthright will gather around you!

I can if I cover more of your shoots! :~

Congratulations Lance G. on shooting the score with a 216.  I apologize for missing the double and the error in your initial score.
