Sierra Vista AZ, AAR- APR 21-22

[AZbinary]

Well!

Another outstanding weekend in Sierra Vista, sharing the history of "The Day" and getting to meet some of the best people.  Sierra Vista is a great place to shoot, and the weather was a still spring crisp 95, with the usual wind that arrives just in time to blow the visual aids around during the lunchtime telling of the three strikes.

Shooters were eager to get started on Saturday, and there were some great groups right off the bat.  The shooters quickly grasped the concepts that the instructors were trying to impart, and we ended the day with great increases in the redcoat scores.  A single AQT netted n o new riflemen however, there were several very close.

Sunday brought an amazing return rate, usually, we only see about half of the 25 or so returning, this week, we got back 18 of 22, great!  The AQT grind was broken up by shooting the county fair star target, and the shamelessly stolen from the Montana contingent Major Buttrick "Fire boys Fire!" event.

The day ended with the benediction, 6 new riflemen, and a new Orange hat to add to our growing ranks.

Well done all!



Krystal takes an Orange hat!  She's been a serial Appleseeder for several months now, congratulations on her Rifleman's patch, it's great to have her on our side of the line!












Cassie's first Appleseed!  Well done!

Tonopah AZ, Patriot's Day 2008: New Orange Hat Krystal's first Appleseed. I think she has the "persevere" thing figured out.

Well attended and safely run; I'm looking forward to my next opportunity to attend.

Wow, massive flashbacks there.  My first event as an IIT!  Down in the drainage ditch behind the nuclear power plant!  Hey, that link is even from my photobucket page!   

Good to see that Tonopah finally netted an IIT to join the ranks!

3 IIT's...so far.

The whole family is moving to the other side of the safety line!

You can also see Galactic Overlord in that picture...

I daresay, 6 riflemen is not too shabby.

This was a great time, I look forward to more in the future.... By the way, why didn't any one tell me I looked like I was passing a stone in my picture?

Passing a stone? Just looks like a half smile to me. Do you pass stones often??? I hear apple cider vinegar and honey as a hot tea do WONDERS for breaking them down.

Just wonderin,
