Missouri has a New State Coordinator!

Greg in MO

After several years of service to our state, Greybeard (Chris) has decided to step down as our State Coordinator.  He has taken MO from humble beginnings to where we are today, and deserves many thanks for what is usually a thankless job (Thanks Chris!).

Fortunately, one our new IITs has stepped up and volunteered for the most important job in the state.  Restless (Derek) has graciously agreed to be our new State Coordinator!  Greybeard will be helping Restless get up to speed and hopefully make this a smooth transition.

It is our responsibility to ensure Restless has the help he needs to make Appleseed a success in Missouri.  He can't do it by himself, so please do whatever you can to assist him.

Thanks for stepping up Derek!

"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives everything its value."   T Paine

(if you want to bring a PC to Washburn, I'd be happy to assist with the process - hint, hint)   :cool2:

Congrats to Restless, and thanks to Greybeard for his work. 

Chris was my first AS contact, and it's hard to think about the program without thinking of him.  Rest well, my friend.

Thanks for stepping up Restless.

Time constraints have left me unable to give this task the attention it deserves.  Hopefully, a bit of new blood will give a jolt of energy to the program. 

As Greg said, Restless is going to need our help.  I've always gotten excellent support from our instructor corps here in MO, and I'm sure Restless will see the same.

I'm not going anywhere... well, that's not quite true.  My family and I are moving to Buffalo MO, and the move is taking a great deal of my time.  Once settled, I fully expect to spend my weekends at an Appleseed somewhere around the state.  I hope to see you on the firing line soon!

Well GB thanks for all the work that you put in as SC. I hope to see you down the trail (Like in Dadeville so you can give me my red hat) 
Derek, thanks for taking the job. Let me know anything that I can do. If you want I'll take the official job of gun show coordinator so you have one less thing to worry about. Celt

Thank you for your service and dedication to the project Greybeard.

Thank you Restless for stepping up to the plate.  * applause *
Though the cause of evil prosper, yet the truth alone is strong;
Though her portion be the scaffold, and upon the throne be wrong;
Yet that scaffold sways the future, and behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above His own.

AFTERMATH

Thank you Greaybeard for the work you've done. :bow:
The foundation you've laid will certainly aid Restless in his new position.

Restless, looks like you're gonna be earning that forum name. >:D
Keep it going! O0

CelticMind, thank you for offering to take something off Restless's plate.
It is exactly that kind of coordination and task shifting that is necessary if Project Appleseed is to successfully evolve up to the next level of National and EFFECTIVE program for service to our Nation!!!

Individuals made choices on 4/19/1775 which changed the course of History and brought about the birth of our Nation! INDIVIDUALS stepping up where they saw or predicted a need has been the lifeblood of our blessed Nation from BEFORE its official birth.

Thanks to each and every one of you that have stepped forward, earlier or now or in the future.... YOU are the ongoing American Revolution!!

Greybeard.... Thank You for all the work you have done to get MO where they are. You have been a great asset to the program. Get settled and get back refreshed. (New area of the state? New area for 'seeds!)

Restless. If I can be of assistance to you, let me know via PM. Thanks for stepping up!

Congrats brother!
We could not ask for a better representative for Appleseed.
(Except  -- GB)  ;)

I am positive you are going to make a big difference.


I am here also if you need anything.
