..:.. ..:.. Announcing the 2nd Annual Athens IBC! ..:.. ..:..
CANCELED BY ATHENS FISH AND GAME CLUB ON JAN 24
Thank you to the Athens Fish and Game Club for generously hosting us for another Instructor Boot Camp on February 19-21!

An IBC is a great mechanism for all current Instructors to come together, refine our understanding of the Appleseed material, improve how we each teach the lessons to our students, get a better understanding of Known Distance, learn rifle familiarization with many different platforms, and much more! This is really the way to get a leg up and move up that Instructor ladder! Bring a pen, notebook, and a good sense of humor! An IBC consists of three full days of classroom learning... but it's also an event not to be missed for enjoying the company of your fellow teammates and recharging your batteries with camaraderie to gear up for the 2011 Appleseed season.
Maybe we can continue the late night tradition of a Zombieland viewing. :~
You'll have all the creature comforts of home and experience some of the best Trail hospitality found anywhere. There are three full restrooms (including showers), and best of all...
Nurse Ratchett has again agreed to spoil us with her excellent cooking! ^:)^
Saturday breakfast/lunch/dinner, Sunday breakfast/lunch/dinner, and Monday breakfast/lunch..... all of that for just $20!

You can roll out a sleeping mat in the clubhouse on a first come, first served basis (see below). Otherwise, this is a great opportunity to test out your cold weather Rifleman gear and sleep outside. Please keep in mind there will be many in the clubhouse and perhaps their bedtimes may differ from yours. :))

Hopefully all Ohio Instructors and teammates from our neighboring states will join us on Feb 19-21. The Event Information Page can be found Here (http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=19870.0). (If by chance you can't make it, you'll have another chance to attend an IBC in Gibsonburg, OH on March 12-14. Details to follow in a few days.)

Feel free to ask any questions you may have and I'll see you there!
Thanks! O0
And don't forget a few spots still remain for the Advanced IBC Fred is running in Miamisburg, OH on Jan 22-23. Fred's AIBC is a totally different animal as it's a more in-depth study of the Appleseed Mission and how we can be better Instructors. There is no overlap with the regular IBCs being held at Athens or Gibsonburg. More info: http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=19297.0 (http://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=19297.0)
I'm in and sleeping at the club house :D!
Clubhouse for me too!
Slackers. ;D I'll be in the back of the truck again.
Count me in; I'm looking forward to it.
QuoteSlackers.
Hehe, sounds like somebody is asking for a bucket of water to be silently poured over their truck hatch while they sleep. >:D

Hey! if it goes sub-zero, I for one am packin' it into the clubhouse with that marvelous
heated floor. If that happens & Joe stays out there, then I'll let him call me a slacker. :bow:
By the way, did I mention the
heated floor in the clubhouse? "Comforts of home" indeed, in some ways, better. The place is so nice I wonder if Fred secretly vacations there sometimes.

He doesn't, but it would certainly be interesting if he did!
Sub-zero would only be a little colder than last year. We hit mid single digits.
As far as water on the hatch? That just means more sack time while I wait for the ice to melt. :D
Anyway, just messing. Can't wait to see everyone again in February.
