The Canadian Invasion continues... we had a beautiful weekend for this shoot; couldn't have asked for better weather up here in the North Country.  We had a Canadian family of three arrive, outnumbering the Americans onsite.  But not to worry - our Canuck bretheren are teachable and our particpants definitely arrived with a good attitude.

No rifleman scores produced, but both Derek and Carolee had fun shooting and showed strong improvement.  I have no doubt that Derek would have achieved the score given a second day of shooting.

Three Strikes went well - for many Canadians it is their first exposure to the details of the American Revolution and it was a good opportunity to tell the story as it really happened.  Hopefully we'll see some more Canadians coming over the border to join us at Massena in the future!
