I'm out in New York (New Rochelle...just north of the Bronx) for family Thanksgiving. My BIL knows the head doorman of the Ritz Carlson Central Park South and he and his family came over for Tday dinner. We got to talking...even though he works in Midtown Manhattan, he is a centerfire bullseye shooter and has recently started cowboy action shooting at his gun club (he has to drive an hour north to Connecticut to shoot).

I asked if he had ever heard of Appleseed and he had. Said his club sponsors shoots and he was interested in trying it.  I ran out to my truck, shoved a trifold in his hand and 7th stepped a bit.  Told him about the Manhattan events we have also.

If anyone decides to drop $800 a night at the Ritz Midtown, tell the doorman Al you are an Appleseeder and he'll take care of you.
