Rhode Island's 1st Ever Appleseed will be held at Massosoit Gun Club in E. Providence on Saturday May, 21, 2011
Thanks to the efforts of noelephant who approached the Club's Board and to vernic82 who presented to them on Monday March, 21 with noelephant & davidgw1 assisting, this joint effort has resulted in Rhode Island's 1st Ever Appleseed.
Thanks also goes out the Massasoit's Board who received us very well and looks to be a very good partner of Project Appleseed as it grows in Rhode Island.
While the final details will be submitted by weeks end, this will be a 1-Day indoor shoot with 9 shooters.
Small yes, but a start for the Nations Smallest State which is no longer devoid of Project Appleseed's presence.
Yours in Liberty,

Good going, vernic and RI crew! This was a long time coming and took much persistence. Well done.

Ah, but all it takes is one seed to be planted into a nice fruitful tree, yes? I have a good feeling this will be the start of something grand in RI. :)
Kudos to noelephant, davidgw1 and vernic82!! Great job gentlemen!!
I competed there in 1967. Congrats Vernic82 and say Hi from an old pilot from the Quonset Point pistol team.
