Last Appleseed of the year in the NW is this weekend. Hip waders and kayak's may prove useful getting to the target line  ;)

Well the rain didn't detour 10 patriots from coming out to learn about Marksmanship and Heritage. The covered firing line and covered targets kept us reasonably dry. We did suffer a wind casualty right at the end of the day - Shot Group Analysis Cookies hit the deck  :'(

Congratulations to Chris. First time seeder shot a 213 on his first AQT. Repeated his rifleman scores all weekend long. Well done sir! Chris brought a young patriot with him who put up scores in the 190's.

Thomas also put up multiple scores in the 190's running his bolt gun. I'm sure we will be giving him a patch in February.

Father/daughter team Mike and Claire were new to rifles and although they had to leave early Sunday both showed promise with nice groups.

We had a few equipment issues but all in all I saw smiles and determination.

Our next event is Feb 27/28. I hope to see you all again.

Looks like y'all made the best of a wet situation, those target "shelters" are ingenious!

Be careful on the adjectives you use to describe Ben's creativity.   He hurt his shoulder patting himself on the back all weekend.

But I will admit that it was a great idea!

Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
