Little Mo and The Mrs. worked the show, nice table set up and also a table at the door with AS Girl poster and handouts in case no one wanted to engage conversation at the table but wanted information. Most of the hand outs were gone from this area.

At the table Saturday as with Saratoga was the busiest day. Allot of conversation with show goers. Also there were a lot of past AS'ers stopping by to visit. 7 stepped these individuals to have family and friends attend an AS.

Show goers form around the region, last shoot this year is next month Lake George November 19/20, promoted hard. Hope all are doing well with this recent snow. More snow tomorrow.

The beautifully renovated Saratoga Springs City Center was the site of the NEACA gunshow on Oct 21-22 2011. Project Appleseed was present with a table, our banner was tall and proud for all to see, and plenty of handouts for the show patrons. The 50' free targets were popular. We also had an AQT, Redcoat, and squares targets to show what the students shoot at to practice the marksmanship instruction we teach. As R1SGX2 pointed out, Saturday was our busy day 7th stepping. Sunday wasn't as busy due to less patrons at the show but R1SGX2 (Mark), The Mrs. (Sue) and myself talked more in detail to the folks that stopped by our table, and of course we talked with some of the vendors about Project Appleseed. Many folks who had never heard of Project Appleseed were truly interested in attending an Appleseed event and we promoted the upcoming Lake George event. We hope to see them and previous Appleseed students at Lake George!
