Wow! is all I can say. We had the biggest IBC/RBC in Wyoming since I went through in 2009. I believe we had 9 in IBC and 16 in RBC. They came from Wyoming, Colorado, Idaho and Washington and our Shoot Boss and his wife came all the way from Florida.
The weather was mostly cooperative with some wind and showers. Much nicer than late April.
Congratulations to Chuck, Chris, Katy Jo and Mark for making Rifleman and stepping up and taking Orange Hats. To the rest of you: PERSEVERE! you all have the knowledge and ability, and several of you were knocking at the door.
Especial thanks to Engineer Shooting and Lucky Lori for coming all the way from Talahassee. Great folks, great Instructors and great storytellers. This was Ken's 100th Appleseed Event!!!
Thanks also to Brian Nugent, Jim Young and all the folks at Converse County Shooting Range/Park for supporting us. The new KD stations are excellent.
Thanks to all attendees, and for those who helped out: Barb, Katy Jo, Mark, Mark, Rick, David, Chuck, Chris, Andrew, and Mike. MORE PHOTOS WELCOME....
Nice pics, and I believe you are correct, The most in attendance at boot camp prior to this one is 7 or 8. Glad to see familiar faces and a few new ones as well. I wish I could have been there but you know how health issues get in the way...
Looks like the weather was just about perfect. Wish I had been there, but maybe at some point in the future.
Unfortunately I was only able to attend part of the IBC (had some other training with work people the following weekend), but it was definitely a profitable weekend. Y'all had solid group of individuals willing to learn and to teach. Thanks for letting me learn and be a part of the weekend; it was definitely a little different than the half dozen BC's I've been too, but I appreciate the pointers and opportunity for sure. Thanks to Engineer shooting, Rocket, and M1bzrk for showing me some things. I hope to work with you gentlemen again sometime.
Keep shooting, keep training, and pass it on. Stay sharp and be safe!

Instructors
What a great time I had in Wyoming helping out. I am glad we made the long drive to help. The instructors were a fine bunch and I enjoyed working with everyone. I at times appeared to be tough on everybody but i told everyone I was used to working with the best in Florida. I certainly will add everyone to my appleseed family. The many students who attended worked really hard, good job. Congratulations to those who scored and took an orange hat. Those who did not, there will be other opportunities to come back i hope. You are always welcome to come to Tallahassee and shoot at our range. The dinner Thursday night was attended by most everyone and was wonderful. Hope to see and work with everyone again in the future.

Rain Runner shot rifleman at the RBC in Douglas, WY. Following weekend with the help of Pine Ridge Puma and M1Bzrk I shot a 226 and 210. This last weekend Rain Runner and myself helped Pine Ridge Puma with a shoot in Mitchell, NE. We qualified a 13 yo, 15 yo, and 2 adults. Rain Runner at 13 yo proved very useful in coaching the younger shooters. Thank you Engineer Shooting, Lucky Lori, rocket, M1Bzrk, and Pine Ridge Puma for all of your support.
