I'm pleased to announce that Louie earned his Red Hat at this weekend's event in New Philadelphia Ohio. 10 shooters and 4 instructors were on hand to confirm that Louie embraces the  Appleseed Mission and is dedicated to instilling that sense of passion in the hearts and minds of others.

Louie did an outstanding job of both instruction and heritage presentations.


Congrats  and wear the new hat proudly !!

Sad I could not be there to witness, but was there in Spirit! What an honor it has been for me to watch your steps down the AS trail. Fun times for sure!!!!!!!!

"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government." — George Washington

"Patriotism is supporting your country all the time, and your government when it deserves it." --Mark Twain (1835-1910)

"A constitution is not the act of a government, but of a people constituting a government; and government without a constitution is power without a right. All power exercised over a nation, must have some beginning. It must be either delegated, or assumed. There are not other sources. All delegated power is trust, and all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either." ~ Thomas Paine

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."
