What a fantastic but hot weekend. This was our first event at Pensacola Rifle and Pistol club, and I simply can't thank them enough for their hospitality. This is a great club with a very helpful staff, and they have extended an invitation for future events.
We had 12 very enthusiastic patriots join us for two days of history heritage and marksmanship. Most in attendance were cadets from the Civil Air Patrol of northwest Florida. These young men and women are a true pleasure to instruct and always bring with them a teachable attitude. We had many that made a great deal of progress in their journey to becoming rifleman and three that achieved the rifleman score.

Congratulations Jeff with a score 215, Natalie with a score of 220 and Landon with a score of 222. Many others did very well with scores above 190.

Natalie, a delightful young lady, has accepted an Orange hat and will join us in the Appleseed mission.

I want to thank JustKim, Patriot 1775, Mrs Waky, Waky, and StanTheMan, what a great group of instructors. Without you this couldn't happen.

Pictures to follow soon!

This was a great event.  Hopefully the first of many at Pensacola Rifle and Pistol Club!  Thank you to the club for hosting us and being so supportive!

The Civil Air Patrol cadets were all amazing!  They are such a pleasure to work with.  TPI was great with this group - they knew all the answers and asked great questions. 

Oh, and the marksmanship showed much improvement!  CONGRATS to Jeff, Landon and Natalie on earning their rifleman patches.  All others are well on the road to Rifleman!

It's not about perfection -- it's about progress!!

I LOVE this stuff!

"Perhaps you and I have lived with this miracle too long to be properly appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again" Ronald Reagan
