Randal, please call me.  I have your Notebook!  484-797-0412

With the Public Service Announcement out of the way, this was a pretty fun event.  Lost of energy & comradery throughout the event.

The weather was great for shooting, being a very mild 60s on Sat with the occasional light sprinkle, but clear & a bit warmer Sunday.

We turned out 4 Riflemen this weekend.  Return 'seeder Bob re-qualified several times and we had 3 new join the ranks, Ben, Ward & Matt.  Pics below.

Hope to see you all at future events!

What about Bob?  Bob had been to several Appleseed events in the past shooting rimfire & wanted to qualify with his AR... he had done so repeatedly over the weekend proving once the fundamentals are acquired, the rifle really doesn't matter.  Nice job, Bob!

Ditto on the great time. MAL and Gary, you are a credit to your organization. Fantastic job, really appreciate your instruction, safety checks & patience with the mixture of experience levels.
