I will be heading out to CA (PIRU) in March. Savage Shooter will be running the IBC and I will be there for the sun!! 8)
Recruit some new instructors and bring them to the IBC. For the current instructors come on out for a refresher before the April 19th weekend.
Keep up the great work in Cali!
See y'all in March!

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.

D-fly Keeping the Faith

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.

Everyone who has the time should check out the CastroVally shoot on Feb 20th. It is your chance to get to instruct/helpout at one of the main ranges that Mythbusters uses. Also if you have friends or family in the SF bay area it is an event that will be closer than Sacramento.
