Bumping for our MO Friends who might have missed it:

Opportunity to return thanks to  Hazelwood Cabela's Store for their support of our Local Shoots.

"The parents and kids are out, the parents and kids are out"


and are descending on Cabela's for the Family Outdoor Adventure Day June 8 2013 from 9am to 3pm.  We need AS volunteers to man the waiver booth for the Daisy BB Gun™ shoot.

Who:
PROJECT APPLESEED®  Volunteers who do not have an AS event planned and would like to spend a little piece of their weekend saving our Country.

We are also going to focus on telling the stories of Patriotic Young Children (PYC)'s -  Short 2 - 5 minute stories told by young APPLESEED™  volunteers specifically about the sacrifices/contributions made by children during the Revolutionary War!  So far we have RiflesNReins, KDCat and GooseGun - but we could certainly use more with such a large planned crowd.

What: Cabela's Family Outdoor Adventure Day
                       Specifically : Daisy BB Gun Range™  *

                      "Take Pride, It's A Daisy! Visit our inflatable BB Gun Range.
                        We will teach gun safety rules and marksmanship skills."

                                                                               ***Note***
Project Appleseed®  Volunteers will not be instructing the above. Cable's supports our "Mission" and asked for our assistance near the Waiver Booth.  This gives us the opportunity to speak with the Parents about our program while they are waiting for their turn to shoot.

It was also suggested we give 2-5 minute Histories about children during the Revolutionary War.

They are asking for our help!   :sos:


Turn out last Fall was in the mid-2000 range over a 2 day period.

Where:
Hazelwood, Missouri :  Map available at link below  **

When:
Saturday : June 8th, 2013   :  9:00am - 3:00pm


Why: We all know why - this is just the nature of what we do.


There will also be many other events for your Family to participate in. Brush off the Colorful Caps, shake the wrinkles out of the AS shirts, and come help return the assistance Cabela's has been showing us in the Midwest!

Why do they call him Body Bag?

Well, you know how; "friends help you move, real friends help you move the bodies"? He always brings a bag... just in case! John Abbott

"But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

RAIN: An atmospheric phenomenon induced by the scheduling and holding of an Appleseed shoot.

WIND: See above.
