Hello all, just curious what happened to the Appleseed events that were scheduled for Georgetown, IN this year.

Event was moved to Evansville due to the range in Georgetown going through some insurance issues.
"(Were) they nourished by your indulgence? They grew by your neglect of them. As soon as you began to care about them, that care was exercised in sending persons to rule over them, in one department and another…Sent to spy out their liberty, to misrepresent their actions and to prey upon them; men whose behaviour on many occasions has caused the blood of these sons of liberty to recoil within them."

We hope they get things in place for us to return sooner than later.  Worst case seems to be next year.  The current insurance carrier the club is using will not allow them to host events.  They are looking at new insurance providers.
Dr. Joseph Warren, in his last letter to his mother, "Where danger is, dear mother, there must your son be... I will set [America] free or die".

Our cause is just . . . our country will be grateful - George Rogers Clark

"This country has been made by the Timothy Murphys, the men in the ranks. Conditions here called for qualities of heart and hand that Tim Murphy had in abundance. Our histories should tell us more about the men in the ranks, for it was to them, more than to the generals that we were indebted for our military victories." -  Franklin Delano Roosevelt, as New York Governor, 1929, at the dedication of the memorial to Murphy

Thanks for the information. I heard something about insurance problems but wasn't sure how serious it was. I also didn't know if this extended to all shooting activities or hosting Appleseed in particular. Good to know this is hopefully just a temporary issue.
