What a wonderful weekend for an Appleseed at the Flagler Gun and Archery Club in Bunnell, Florida. As usual, the club provided excellent facilities for our event. The weather cooperated too by not raining until we completed Sunday's program and cleanup.

Although there was a modest turnout, all the shooters were attentive and eager to improve their marksmanship and to listen to the great April 19th stories. Ed made his musket presentation on Sunday wearing his tricorne (tri-cornered hat).

Joe and Lisa both showed impressive improvements in their marksmanship despite several issues with their rifles. Doug was trying hard and moving right along but began having magazine issues with his rifle.

Vitalie just made it across the line on Saturday with a 210 score; he is now a full-fledged Rifleman.

JC/DC did an outstanding job completing his requirements to attain IIT3. Congratulations John!

Thanks to all the instructors Glenn (FLawyer), Ed (edree) and John (JC/DC) for their efforts in making this event a success.

We'll be taking a summer "heat" break at Bunnell but will be back October 7-8 and December2-3.

Thank you, Pete, for running a great event. What we lacked in numbers, we made up for in enthusiasm.

A big thank you to our participants, with congratulations to Vitalie. I look forward to seeing each of you at another event soon.

I've attached some photos from the weekend.

Let me just add one more photo of Joe before he pulled the trigger so it doesn't look like he was aiming at the birds in the sky!
Thanks again to Pete for his generous donation of effort, black powder, and cleaning time, just so we could all have a bit of extra fun.
Thank you Pete.
