The majority of instruction will be done at 25 meters, so be sure to bring your .22lr's and save some ammo money. Ralph James, a Revolutionary War Reenactor and a club member, will be there for the April 19th event! He will be doing an interesting live history presentation of a period soldier's dress attire , and a musket loading demonstration. Last year, attendees got to shoot the musket! Lunch will be served for a nominal fee. Last year we were served hotdogs, hamburgers, baked beans and a few other side dishes, along with soda and chips. This year's lunch should be comparable to last year's.
