After cancellations and the threat of rain, we only ended up with 4 shooters for this one-day event, but they showed incredible tenacity throughout the day. Other disciplines at the range cancelled their events but not Appleseed. By the time it was finished, we were all soaked to the bone and these incredible Patriots showed no fear as they lay in rain paddles on the open ground. We also realized a plus side to being soaked as we posted our final redcoats of the day. No staples necessary! Erin captivated us with tales of shooting slingshots from horseback and even brought us girl scout cookies! Roger, a former Brit, revealed his own passion for Liberty and why he recently became an American citizen. Bravo! Drew showed much improvement and I see a future Rifleman very soon. Young Josh truly earned the Luther Blanchard patch, shooting his pump action .22 and making his Grandfather proud. To all, thanks for sticking it out and showing us what a true American spirit looks like.
