Appleseed Family,
I want to make you aware of an upcoming Instructor Boot Camp in Albuquerque, NM on February 18-19, at the City of Albuquerque Shooting Range Park. It is FREE to the Appleseed volunteer cadre, of course, and is designed to enable all of us to help work Appleseed events with even greater simplicity and precision. Those who have not worked an event for a while may find it a fine refresher. For those who are seasoned instructors, it may be useful to review a bit.
While this event is scheduled for New Mexico, border raiders are encouraged to join us!
Who can come? It's for Instructors-in-Training, Instructors, Applecore, Shoot Bosses, and even crusty old Senior Instructors! If you are not yet a volunteer but have attended a 25m event and shot a Rifleman score, come on out. :)
Stuff you need to know:
1. The purpose of the IBC is to help our instructors grow and become better teachers, away from the pressure of being in front of students.

3. Lodging. There are a couple of hotels relatively close by; see the event information page. An option for groups might be an airbnb.
4. Don't let the name "Boot Camp" intimidate you. This is a gentleman's course. No push-ups, no hazing, no yelling. Most of our IBC exercises will be in small groups.

Please pass this along to anyone you think may be interested. The IBC is the method we use to ensure everyone is on the same page when we teach using the Appleseed way: SIMPLICITY and PRECISION. Please join us and invite others. You are part of an elite group - the best rifle instructors in the country. Come help us all improve as we spread the message of Liberty.
This is going to be a great event! Hope to see all of you there... so Sign up! (https://appleseedinfo.org/citizen/?registerlink=https://goappleseednow.org/?event=albuquerque-nm-instructor-boot-camp-february-18-19-2023) ^:)^
In Liberty,
Mrs. Smith
(Yes, I shamelessly stole the format from Google, who in turn stole it from some other dude, but it's hard to improve on this. ;D)
