Title: "The Parents and Kids are out! - The Parents and Kids are out!" Hazelwood, MO
Post by: Mutti on February 26, 2014, 05:54:04 PM
Opportunity to return thanks to  Hazelwood Cabela's Store for their support of our Local Shoots.

"The parents and kids are out, the parents and kids are out"


and are descending on Cabela's for the Family Outdoor Adventure Day May 3rd, 2014 from 9am to 3pm.  We need AS volunteers to man the waiver booth for the Daisy BB Gun™ shoot, monitor the Shooters and instruct in the finer points of Historical Freedom!

Who: PROJECT APPLESEED®  Volunteers who do not have an AS event planned and would like to spend a little piece of their weekend saving our Country.

We are going to focus on telling the stories of Patriotic Young Children (PYC)'s -  Short 2 - 5 minute stories told by young APPLESEED™  volunteers specifically about the sacrifices/contributions made by children during the Revolutionary War!  So far we have RiflesNReins, KDCat and GooseGun - but we could certainly use more with such a large planned crowd.  Last year the "Older Youngsters" (http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=36051.msg263967#msg263967) had an incredible time connecting with the crowd.

What: Cabela's Family Outdoor Adventure Day
                       Specifically : Daisy BB Gun Range™  *

                     

                                                                               ***Note***

Project Appleseed®  Volunteers have been specifically tasked to instruct the above. After the past 2 years successful participation - we are known as the "Dependable Go-To Team".

Cable's supports our "Mission" and has given us the opportunity to speak with the Parents about our program while they are waiting for their turn to shoot. This year the U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance Foundation has asked us to expand our efforts and reach more people throughout the mid-west.

It was also suggested we give 2-5 minute Histories about children during the Revolutionary War.

They are asking for our help!   :sos:


Where: Hazelwood, Missouri :  Map available at link below  **

When: Saturday :  May 3rd, 2014  :  9:00am - 3:00pm


Why: We all know why - this is just the nature of what we do.


There will also be many other events for your Family to participate in. Brush off the Colorful Caps, shake the wrinkles out of the AS shirts, and come help return the assistance Cabela's has been showing us in the Midwest!

Hey Mutti! I'm looking forward to seeing you at this wonderful opportunity. It was so gracious  for Cabela's to welcome us back and trust us to run their BB gun line. Looking forward to working with everyone. Tell me if I can do anything to help, such as posting the exact link to directions on how to get to the area.
RnR,
