Hello, checking in from Benton.  Hoping there are more shoots down this way this year. My son loved it last year and he has been practicing!  

The best thing from the shoot last year in Carmi was not his marksmanship, but when we were shooting on our home range my wife came out to take a pictures of us and she stood slightly in front of the "red line" and my son stopped shooting, made his rifle safe and then lectured his mom on safety!

I was so proud at that point!

Thanks to Mudcat and the team from Carmi for all their work with the kids that day.  I made an impression that stuck!



Excellent Story O0

We have another shoot coiming to carmi this year as well as a few others in the works down that way. Hope to meet you and the family on the trail soon!

If you are waiting for materials from Myself or other IL vonteers, Please send me a PM.

Dave, I have yours, thanks for reminding me, it is not out yet, but tommorow is looking good, I'm headed to the Post Office for a few reasons O0

There is a chat window on the radio blog site  

://www.blogtalkradio.com/appleseedradio/2010/02/03/revolutionary-war-veterans-association-virtual-muster-night  

However, it moves so fast with so many people posting, it is almost impossible to carry on a chat w/them.

Crash it crash it

For other checking in. I have locked the other topics, but feel free to check them out. The Illinois Schedule is posted and if it is green it is good to go, if it is yellow stay tuned, we are working on it!!

Way to go Garand, lock up all the threads and funnel all the Appleseeders to this one.  Keeping an eye on you.
