To all Illinois Instructors!

We have another wonderful opportunity to partner with ISRA in their Annual Open House at the range in Bonfield.  The date is Sat., June 23rd.

We will have a table to present Project Appleseed information and for that we have a new brochure magazine, handouts,  Issac Davis Logo decals and bookmarks to pass out.  We have several new Appleseed videos to play so everyone can get a glimpse of the many faces of Appleseed.

We'd like to see at least 7-8 instructors to man the table and also to go out on the ranges to assist with the various shooting areas of Rifle, Pistol, Air gun, shotgun, Muzzle loaders and Black powder guns. We should be able to help them out somewhere along the lines.  O0 I'll be coordinating our participation with the ISRA folks as instructors get signed up.

Please let me know as soon as you can if you will help with this. 
Thanks!

Ok, there have been 42 reads on this post! 

How many of you can we count on to help out that weekend? 

ISRA is one of our best supporters.

Even if you can only be there half a day, every little bit helps!

Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.

We still need some instructors to volunteer to help man the Appleseed booth/table for the ISRA Open House!!!  This is an important range for Appleseed so if you can come up, over, down for even half the day it would help the cause!    O0

Thanks for all you do for Appleseed!!

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."  one who has not qualified himself with the M-16 may not be considered to be a responsible citizen."

"Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in
