I had a great time with the folks who braved the chilly mornings that turned into perfect afternoons.
We had a determined group of attendees, with several there and ready to get going at 7:30 Sunday morning! We obliged with a total of 12 AQTs over the weekend. Eddie shot an impressive 222 on the first try Saturday. He even started eyeing an orange hat, and shadowed an RSO for a while. Sunday morning Evan shot a 211, and Stuart followed on the next try with a 219. Great job, Riflemen! :---
Everyone there did a great job, with groups in standing and seated that I don't get to see very often, and even more rare that it happened so quickly. The shooters that didn't get riflemen scores were making me nervous, as I hoped I wouldn't run out of patches! ;D
I did have the honor of giving Nathan a youth patch. Thank you John, for helping to pay it forward to the next generation.
Our crew did a great job too. I'd like to thank Everett (zonkertx), Mark (El Tejano), Jerry (Twinkle Toes) and Rodger (Two Wolves) for all the hard work, and double thanks to Rodger and Jerry for the setup before the weekend started. We also saw our blue hat Tonya, but for shorter than usual this time. She brought a very enthusiastic report of her time at the Alamo on Saturday, and how she promoted Appleseed at the rally there.
