Testing, testing, one..,two.....,three.......?

[loves2hunt59]

Hello Iowa,  Hello....any one here?  Is this thing on?   Got involved with the thread in the general discussion a while back asking is there anyone here from Iowa?  Confidently said there were,  Hoping I'm not forced to redact( see you can learn new words while watching the cogress-critters at work) my previous comments.   What can we/ should we be doing to liven things up in Iowa?   Those Illinioans seem to have designs on expanding into what they perceive as a vacuum. Being soooooooooooooo close to the border I'm getting a bit nervous  

[AFTERMATH]

Stay strong!
I'm sure your Iowan brethern are running covert recon missions and setting up a contingency plan.
While they're busy; see if you can't muster up any new recruits!
When we are able; MN will gladly send aid!
After all; the SB at MN's first shoot was from Iowa!

Hang in there!

[AFTERMATH]

That's one heck of a list of future Appleseeds Garand...

[loves2hunt59]

Garand 69,   I'll have to look the rest of the list over but Montrose, Tri-State Gun Club,  is my home range.   Iowa-Mark came down & did April 19th AS there this year.  This was the one I mentioned in your thread .

[kk0g]

I'd post this as a new topic but for some reason I have no "Start New Topic" when I'm logged in? Hopefully people will see it here or possibly the moderators can move it to a new topic.

We are hosting an Appleseed at Madison County Sportsmen's Club (http://www.shootmadisoncounty.com/)in Winterset on July 17th and 18th. It's not actually on the schedule yet as the paper work has just now been sent in but check back soon and it should be shortly. For more information contact: information@shootmadisoncounty.com

[loves2hunt59]

kkOg, good, Very Good. Hope to see you there.

[AFTERMATH]

Huzza!

Here it is! 
Still breathin' afterall!


Winterset, IA July 17-18

[desertrat144]

Re: ranges and getting things happening.  Grand69 's posting of ranges included several that had Air Rifle Facilities; is any one there interested in getting a 15yd Appleseed happening? 

This 'Airgun Appleseed' has existed before, and fell by the wayside somehow.  Fred has authorized a restart for those interested.  see "Did you say a 15 yard Appleseed??

For anyone that is meeting resistance from organizations due to shooters age, this may be a good down n dirty answer.  Should this get restarted in earnest Appleseed could literally double within two months.

Just a thought.

Tom

[loves2hunt59]

Chris, thanks for the effort. Tom, thanks for the idea, we'll see if we can use this. Everyone, thanks for the encouragement and offers of assistance.  In addition we MAY, POSSIBLY, have two more dates for Montrose and two more for Wayland in the works now, wish us luck.  Thanks again, Vic.

[kk0g]

By the way the After Action Report for Winterset is up now.

[dairyboy4]

I'm still here Vic and plan to attend in Aug. be expecting a call soon from me
