Fellow Appleseeders,
 
The Iowa Team is hosting an IBC this year in Des Moines, the weekend of 28-29 March!

Border raiders are welcome to join us!  Who can come?  It's for Instructors-in-Training, Instructors, Applecore, Shoot Bosses, and even crusty old Senior Instructors!  If you are not yet a volunteer but have attended a 25m event and shot a Rifleman score, come on out!
 
Stuff you need to know:
1.  Purpose.  An IBC is THE best way to become better marksmanship & history teachers, away from the pressure of being in front of students.  If you are an instructor, instructor in training, or interested in being a Project Appleseed Instructor - Sign up!
2.  Cost.  Free to attend! Sign up!
3.  Format.   Don't let the name Boot Camp intimidate you.  This is a "gentleman's course".  No push-ups, no hazing, no yelling.  Most of our exercises will be in small,friendly groups.  sign up!
4.  Location.  We'll be meeting at the Iowa State Fairgrounds Safety Building, 491 E 30th St, Des Moines, IA 50317.  sign up!
5.  Patches?  Yes!  Attendance at this event qualifies you for your BOOT CAMP rocker.  Sign up!
6.  Signing Up.  If you've not attended an IBC in the last year or so, please sign up as a student.  Sign up
 
Please pass this along to anyone you think may be interested.  The IBC is the best method to learn how to teach the Appleseed way: with SIMPLICITY and PRECISION.  Please join us and invite others as we spread the message of Liberty.
 
This is going to be a great event! Hope to see all of you there... so sign up!  ^:)^
