North Carolina Appleseeders 2011 - Stand Up and Be Counted!!

Folks, I'm stanrting to craft the strategies for the new year this month, and I'd like to get an idea of where we are personnel-wise.  You all know that I send out PM-blasts from time to time and I would like to make sure I've got everyone's username who would like to receive them.  Likewise, I always like to contact everyone in a particular area in which I would like to establish new locations, so it's very beneficial for me to have this information for everyone from NC who's ever attended an Appleseed and had a good experience.  Therefore, I'm asking everyone to check in here with your username (at least), whether, you're an Instructor, IIT, or attendee, and your city of residence.  I'll start us off.

You all don't need to publish all your contact info like I've done here, but I would like at least your username and city of residence, as well as your association with Appleseed.  Here's an example of that using one of my buds.

And if you've just been a student at one of our events, just list the number of events attended.  If you've never been to an Appleseed but would still like to hear from me about upcoming events, just list that you haven't yet attended.  I'll be sure to keep everyone informed, no matter what.  This post will make it much easier for me to plan for next year and will help me identify areas which contain many interested parties, so I'll know where I need to look for shoots.  Even if you're sure I know where you live, respond anyway.  Think of this as a Virtual Muster, because that's exactly what it is.

I want to thank you all in advance for responding here.

Just found Appleseed-- Interested in attending a meet in spring
I own 17, 22 mag, 223 Handi singles and 10-22. All with scopes--old eyes
Probably will not be very competitive in rapid fire. Guess I believe one shot should do it.

Montveil -
Good to have you. Bring that 10/22 with 3 or 4 mags, a GI sling, get a solid 25 yard zero before coming to the event with whatever "cheap" ammo (200 rounds a day is a good start) that feeds & functions 100%. After that little bit of gear the rest is easy! I am partial to the crew at Ramseur - wherever you go they are all GTG! Here are a couple artilces that help you decide what to bring, what to expect & why you may want to attend.

Hi folks,

I'm in North Raleigh (Wake Forest, NC) area.  I've attended one AS event (actually the first of two days) in the fall of 2010 in North Fay, NC.  That was enough to get me interested.  I promised Stimey at that time that I would be back and I'm planning to attend both days here in NC next month.

I'd like to get more involved and help in the program.  I'm willing to help just about anywhere in NC.  If any of you guys are organizing in Raleigh area (or within a couple of hours) let me know when and where, I'm ready!!!

Cheers,

Patrick

Come to one of our Appleseeds or home range events and meet the crew, We would be happy to put you to work if your willing. Steve

Come on down.  Are you going to beat your previous score?   ;D  Jimmy and I will be returning and  there will be two other AS instructors.
