:F HUZZAH! :F
What a fantastic weekend! I am very grateful to Rivanna Rifle and Pistol Club for hosting the event. Also very grateful to the instructors that came out to teach: BadFishy, Dale, Dangerous Cook, DeadAnt, JL, Messer, Moar_En_Blocs, OddsREven, and The Wolfhound.
Finally, thank you to the students who spent their weekend with us, hearing the history of the start of the nation, and learning marksmanship.
Congratulations to Moar_En_Blocs for starting down the Instructor road...he received his orange hat the morning of April 19th. Huzzah! And did a fantastic job all weekend.
Words fail me to really describe the weekend. We had such a super group of patriots there as both students and instructors. I'll simply post pictures and let those speak for me.
I look forward to seeing each and every one of you again!

Thanks for providing a great weekend of marksmanship & history! We were so fortunate to shoot on April 19! It was fun meeting others from different states as well.
VA instructors are top-notch. My sister & I had a great time 😁
Great 250th event! Thanks to all who volunteered! My 2 kids loved the experience. They're chasing that Rifleman patch so I'm sure we'll see many of you again!
A few more pictures.

I was looking forward to this event for almost a year, and I was not disappointed! What a great celebration for the 250th anniversary.
We had a great group of students, and their smiles throughout the weekend filled my soul. I look forward to sharing a range with you again!
To the Virginia Instructor Cadre, Thank you once again for your dedication to teaching these life skills, and your focus on safety. The Rivanna Rifle and Pistol Club appreciates you all.
Stay Vigilant,
Messer
p.s. Great Pics!!
April 19th events are so special. There is nothing like seeing a full shooting line! Congrats all on a great event!!
My son and I enjoyed the event. It was nice to participate in an Appleseed after being away for so long. My sincere appreciation to the shoot boss, instructors, IITs and volunteers, you all made the weekend enjoyable, informative and you also sparked some memories for this "only slightly dangerous" old man.
