Only 5 students....    :(
5 GREAT students GOOD!  :---

Big thanks to Sandy (I found the loooong detour on the way home), Terry, Allana, Rob and Kyle!  You folks were great students.  I can appreciate the long drive, long days and camping in the rain;  Appleseed Old School!

Terry was our lone Rifleman (well done), but the improvement shown by everyone was most excellent.  It's only a matter of time and practice, every one of you is capable of it!

I hope you enjoyed yourselves and learned a thing or two.  I wish we had some more time on the BIG range,  BOOONG... sure sounds nice, doesn't it?  ...and whoever thinks that you can't ring steel at 200yds with a .22....  Go Kyle!


Thankfully,. the challenges of Saturday's heat and humidity and Sunday's torrential downpours were kept to a minimum by the very fine covererd firing line at the Mifflin County Sportsmans Club.  Again I say, they have a fine facility.


Congrats to PA's newest Red Hat... Stand!  Well done Chuck.

...and a very fine job for his first time out of the gate by Publican.

It was a great weekend!  Thanks to the club for hosting us.  The long haul students from VA and our local PA student made great advances.  I hope they follow through with the promotion of the program in VA I would love to see some more ranges having events closer to them.

Terry and Rob had HUGE grins after shooting my M1!  ;D  I would be supprised if the order isn't in yet.

It was nice to meet Publican and to work with Chainsaw.

I'm becomming a fan of covered ranges, at least if it pours during an event.  It helpd fend off the ever present rust monster.
Last evening, it occurred to me that when a defender of Liberty is called home, their load lands upon the shoulders of the defenders left behind. Just as the Founders did their duty for Liberty, every subsequent generation must continue their work lest Liberty perish. As there is no way for the remaining adults to take on the work of those that die, we must pass the ideals and duties on to the children. -PHenery

"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." — George Washington

"Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it." --Mark Twain (1835-1910)

"A constitution is not the act of a government, but of a people constituting a government; and government without a constitution is power without a right. All power exercised over a nation, must have some beginning. It must be either delegated, or assumed. There are not other sources. All delegated power is trust, and all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either." ~ Thomas Paine

As an Appleseed student, I thought  there was so much to learn. Being on the Orange hat side of things, I see I have sooo much more to learn (in addition to trying to become a better Rifleman).

NO REGRETS THOUGH! Thanks for all the help and encouragement from Chainsaw and Stand. GRATS Stand on the RED HAT!
