As we officially wrap up the Arizona Appleseed season, I want to say thank you to everyone who came out this year: the shooters who attended, the instructors who volunteered, the folks who helped on the line, and everyone who brought friends and family to the range.
Because Arizona summers are not exactly kind to outdoor events, our season runs September through April, and Sunday marked the close of a great 2025–2026 season. We had solid events, great students, dedicated instructors, and plenty of teachable moments on both marksmanship and heritage. That is what keeps this program going.
The good news is that the next season is already taking shape. The 2026–2027 Arizona Appleseed season will kick off in September with a Pistol Clinic. We also already have October and November rifle events on the calendar, and registration is open now for both students and instructors.
Spring 2027 dates are still being finalized, and I will share those as soon as they are locked down.
Thank you again to everyone who made this season possible. Enjoy the summer, stay cool, keep practicing, and we will see you back on the line in September.
