Title: Charlotte, NC AAR - Apr 18-19, 2026
Post by: NeilR on April 25, 2026, 11:54:39 AM
Neither rain nor snow nor massive clouds of wind-blown pollen kept our intrepid Appleseeders from having a fine weekend in Charlotte. We welcomed eight shooters, including three under 18, and awarded three Rifleman patches (Rick, Pike and Simeon) in addition to gaining appreciation for the hearts and minds in which the American Revolution was won and for the the day the Revolutionary War started exactly 251 years ago. Congrats to IIT Doug who requalified with a Distinguished score.

We were trying to convince Neil to declare this a "pollen-seed" similar to a winterseed but he wasn't having it.
What a tremendous group but seeing clouds of pollen coming off the long needle pines was something different to be sure.
Great times though with a great group.
