BEST 15 HOUR DAY EVER !!!

We originally had 6 shooters signed up for a 2-day event.  The weather forecast for northern NH was 8-14" of snow starting Saturday night turning to freezing rain on Sunday through early am Monday.  Three of the six preemptively cancelled due to weather.  Polling the three remaining students, we agreed to conduct a 1-day Appleseed instead. Unfortunately, one more called in sick Saturday morning. Regardless we pushed on with the two students.  Kevin (returning student) and Kate (first time) showed tremendous progress and persevered through the cold. And by cold, I mean this and 7am at the range....

We were jam packed with instructors.  ShaneO completed his PC1, NH Wyman completed AC to AC/RSO, mmirate was awarded his 25 shoot pin, HamGun earned his NH state patch, NightPoison got on the line and shot a 219 earning his Winterseed patch, and all Luigi got was a lousy T-shirt. 

Like I said, best 15 hour day ever



Appleseed is friend to all, enemy to none

-7 degrees, 14 inches of snow? You're nuts and I really like you guys! Winterseeds are the best seeds. 

Excuse me, have to pull the blanket back over my feet after reading this.  **)

Sounds like an awesome time! We've been lovin' all the snow here in NY.  ;D

Congrats of earning your 25 pin mmirate and to nightlpoison for earning your winterseed patch! I laughed out loud reading about Luigi's shirt. Haha.

Look forward to earning my own NH patch in October!
