Folks,

take some time to look over these two lists which Bob 210 maintains...

California Rifleman 162
California Instructors 79

Take the time, not necessarily right now, to reach out to people you know and recognize on these lists who haven't been around.

I don't want one or two of us to come across as badgering people to do stuff, I want us as a group to "animate and encourage each other" all the time.

If you are lurking out there don't feel you can't drop back in after a long gap. We all understand that everyone does what they can when they can, but lets all stay in contact...

Cheers
Phil

V,
Sure, I'm from the Oceanside area. My son and I (Scott 1 and Scott 2) were at Dulzura this past weekend.
We were at a Ridgecrest Appleseed a year ago or so.

He was certainly shooting Garands this weekend, hi Scott... see I do know you, just putting names, faces and screen names together.... so tell me, your profile shows you registered back in 2007 is that right?

Everytime that garand went off the car alarm behind him went off bang, beep, beep, bang, clang, beep, beep,beep

its was funny


2007? Dang, it's been awhile.

Hello California Appleseeders!

Looks like the Muster Night is going to be busy and an opportunity to network.

I tell ya, California is, with little doubt, the shining star of the Appleseed efforts, both being a leader of the program and generator of large numbers of quality people!

Back at the beginning of the CA program, ashamedly I admit, my thoughts were that the efforts within CA would be "good money after bad", boy, there is just no way to express how faulty that thought was.   After just a few moments at my first shoot in CA (April 19th, 2008), the heart and quality of the owners of CA was obvious.

The impressiveness with which you all have grasped the concept of waking up your fellow countrymen, sharing their heritage with them and motivating them to take up the tasks of preserving/passing on this heritage to the future generations, is awe inspiring.   A better quality, solidly grounded and rightfully minded group of Instructors and volunteers can not be found in the nation. 

Rest assured, you folks are doing Appleseed right, in a manner which should be imitated and duplicated nation wide.  The eyes of the nation naturally look to the West to see the trends.   Even though you all got a later start (2 years later), within a year you were at par, within 18 months, leading the nation of Appleseed.   

I have truly enjoyed my exposure and experiences with you all out there in California!   

Please, keep up the good work, your state and country are counting on you there to carry the water, sadly, CA traditionally carries some extra water for the rest of nation.  You all are capable!  Very Capable!   So, hold firm and lead on!

It has been a pleasure to get to know so many of you!   

Hope to see some of you in 2010.

Another left coastie checking in from Davis, CA.  The wife and I shot Jan 23-24, 2010 in Sloughhouse, CA.  (Thanks so much BaldDragn, James E, and Nukechaser.)  We're excited about the program and looking for a way we can contribute.

Hi V, Hi everybody, I'm here near Piru.  It's my turn to chase the kids around the house tonight, so I'll be in and out.

Hi Everyone,
Johnnyappleseed checking in here!!!
Ive made a couple calls to remind some who are not here yet
Great seeing you all.
Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

Yes we will be having IBCs in NorCal, the only question is, How far is "Up our way?"
