Title: Montana Capseed 2014
Post by: Carlson on November 17, 2013, 09:08:27 PM
I was approached today by the Commander of the Local Civil Air Patrol squadron about the possibility of having an Appleseed events for the CAP Cadets (and parents).  It's possible that we might be able to get some cadets from Helena to attend as well.

What do we need to do to accommodate them?

Will they have thier own rifles?

I would have to say, probably not.  I actually didn't ask that question. 

They are still working on their training schedule for next year.  I would expect this event would sometime in the Spring or Summer of 2014, so there is plenty of time for planning.  I've got two loaner rifles myself, and I plan to add a couple of more to the stable between now and Summertime.  My Contact is the Vice Commander for the Montana wing, CPT Steven Potratz, who attended our autumn event in Three Forks, with his Son.  He's had a taste of the program, and wants to learn to tell the history.  ;D

How many civil air patrol cadets are in the program?
Samuel Whittamore range is closed from early May untill the cattle graze off the grass.
