Chewbacca, that won't be a problem. If people want to be next to each other at an Appleseed, they usually are. At this Appleseed the firing line is long enough where you won't have to worry about not being able to be by each other.

Anyone bringing slings for sale?

I have slings to loan, or slings to buy.  Two green nylon new, and one tan canvas new.  Couple of others that are used and can be had as loaners for the day.  Speak up to reserve one if you need it.

Guess I better also add that they are 1 1/4 inch slings.  I also have 1 1/4 inch swivels that I can loan out to folks who have the studs but not the swivels.

There are still a few openings.  That means you can bring your husband/wife/friends.   8)

Looks like the weather is going to be EXCELLENT! :cool2:

We have some special door prizes at this Patriot's Day event.

I have gotten E-Mails and Phone Calls.  We should have 4-6 Walk-Ons Saturday Morning. 
How are things looking for supplies?   Is there anything we are in need of?   What time do you plan to arrive at the range so I can get the gate open early enough this time?

willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom."

Most of the coordination is taking place via PM.  Ed and I have exchanged several messages this morning as he has graciously extended his support and that of the Club.

Supplies are good.  Plenty of targets and all that.

I'm bringing the makings of an impromptu firing line in case we exceed the number of shooters that can be accommodated by the club's preexisting backers.

Ed and I will meet at 7 AM; Chris and Mike will join us at 7:30 AM.  I have every intention of putting rounds downrange by 9 AM.  Other details are in PMs.

Weather looks excellent for this time of year. 

Let's Roll, Wisconsin!

I just wanted to say, I had a great time, and I learned a lot.  Now that I know what I am doing wrong, I just need to keep on practicing to do it right.  Thanks to all the instructors for their help. 

I am going to put a post on another forum about my great experience, and let others know about Appleseed.

Thanks again.
