I hope I have answered your questions,
PH


Yes. Thank you.  

I am working at my first Appleseed as an ITT this weekend in St Augustine . Once I get past that then I am going to see if I can make it work so that I can attend the IBC in August.

Thank you.

The hour is fast approaching,on which the Honor and Success of this army depend. Remember officers and soldiers, that you are Freemen, fighting for the blessings of Liberty - that slavery will be your portion, and that of your posterity, if you do not acquit yourselves like men-1776

"If ever a time should come when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in government,our country will stand in need of it's experienced patriots to prevent it's ruin." Samuel Adams,1780

Lord make me fast and accurate. Let my aim be true, and my hands faster than those who would seek to destroy me.  Grant me victory over my foes, and those  that wish to do harm to me and mine. Let not my last thought be if I only had my Gun; and Lord if today is truly the day that you take me home, let me die in a pile of empty brass.

woo-hoo! count me in! I love this "train the trainer" stuff! I'm stoked!  and even more so that Rick (Sly223) replied for me first! way to go, babe!

If you have multiple rifles, bring an unusual magazine fed one.  Not many of us have multiple rifle experience and it will be good to learn the intricacies of different rifles so we know how to help people on the line at events.


OK - To get people familiar with different rifle types, I will bring 3 rifles.

1)  Robarms XCR

2)  FN FS2000

3)  Marlin 795


As I implied above.  Learning how to set the safety, load, unload, hold open, clear jams on different rifles that appear at Appleseed events is important for instructors.  I'm not bringing an AR15 type as I am sure someone else will have one.

Regards...Martin

Theri

There's a La Quinta at 3701 East Fowler Avenue I send my in-laws to. They like it a lot.  ($86/night-ish) 4.0/5 stars (not the one on 30th)
For another 8 bucks a night, looks like the hotel next door to it got another half star (4.5/5). Wingate by Wyndham 3751 East Fowler Avenue, Tampa, FL. Judging from the online reviews, I would probably spend the extra $16 for the weekend, especially if the family is coming.

http://www.wingatetampa.com/

Also, does anyone get along well enough to share a room for the weekend? Just a thought.

The IBC location is basically at the corner of Bougainvillea and 46th St N 33617 if you want to do a search.

I would not be opposed with sharing the room with someone but I have a medical condition that requires me to use a CPAP (breathing machine) overnight which does make a noise which could be distracting.

If anyone is interested in sharing a room please PM me and I will change the reservation.

I have experienced the CPAP machine - not so terrible. Heck, my Hunny snores louder than that! I no - did I say that out loud.  :wb:

The American Constitution is remarkable for its simplicity; but can only suffice a people habitually correct in their actions, and would be utterly inadequate to the wants of a different nation.  Change the domestic habits of the Americans, their religious devotion, and their high respect for morality, and it will not be necessary to change a single letter in the Constitution in order to vary the whole form of their government. - Francis Grund 1837
