Project Appleseed

We will be having an IBC this March 14-15th at the Madison County Sportsmen's Club in Winterset.

Camping at either Bryce's or my house will be available. I have room for 6-8 to crash in my basement too. There will be a $10 fee for the weekend. Lunch will be included you will be on your own for other meals.

I plan to be there but only for Saturday.  Thanks!

I suppose I should check in and say I'll be SB for this event. 

We're about a month out - I've got a few ends to tie up but I'll get the planning process started shortly.

In the meantime get signed up and check in here so I know who's coming.

If you have any questions feel free to reply here or send me a PM.

We need to get some others to participate. A weekend like this will help you to understand why we teach the skills in the way we do.

hope to see you there!
Mike

Two buddies of mine are also coming -- we are all IBC first timers and looking forward to it!  (They should already be officially signed up.)

The value of an IBC with such a seasoned instructor at the helm CANNOT be underestimated. Simplicity and precision - the minimum number of spoken words, results in the greatest retention. IBC is immersion education - a chance to let the world go for a weekend and develop skills and friendships that will last a lifetime. Tempis Fugit my AS brothers and sisters - Carpe Diem!

Oh, and you'll also learn "Rifleman Yoga".  O0

We have 6 signed up and have room for more. Location has changed for Saturday and you will receive an email from me today with directions. There are some excellant orange hat candidates coming it will be a fun weekend.

QuoteCarpe Diem!

Indeed, and that day is rapidly approaching!  Unfortunately, it's only two days, though... 
That doesn't mean we won't cover a weeks worth of subjects. ^-^


Required items:

1)  Brain
- one is good enough but if you've got an extra lying around feel free to bring that one too.
- Preferably, the aforementioned brain should ready and willing to receive, process, recall and present information/knowledge.

2)  If you've got number one what else do you really need?


Recommended items:

1)  Pen/pencil/paper - This is to make #1's job easier.

2)  A story to share - specifically, surrounding the events of April 19th, 1775.  Does not have to be one of the strikes or DOM.
     - Actually, I'm tempted to put this on the above list.... 

3)  A rifle - who leaves home without a centerfire rifle?  But I figure, just in case you like to be different, I'd have you bring it along.

4)  Ammo - because what good is a rifle without ammo anyway. 

NOTE:  Course of Instruction for a two day IBC places classroom time(POI) preeminently.   No guarantees on live-fire, but with our small group we should move along quickly.

5)  Instruction/presentation tools - any sort of visual aides you might have.

6)  Comfort items - I believe Mike will have some refreshments, and stuff.  Maybe give him a call, and see if there's something you can pitch in on.  We'll be putting about 8/hrs day - so make sure you have whatever it is you need to get you through.


Preparations:

1)  Prepare your heart and mind for taking a drink from a new firehose

2)  Read the manual/instructor guidelines

3)  Read Paul Revere's Ride

4)  If you have any specific questions you'd like to ask at the IBC, write them down and bring them with.

5)  Be prepared to improvise, adapt, and overcome.



Watch, listen, learn, observe and ask questions.

Winterset 3-15 will be glorious!


Mike, Buzz, am I forgetting anything?
