Calling all Illinois and Missouri Instructors - we have an incredible opportunity for an entire day to meet the Leaders and become more involved with our Community of Boy Scouts. 

Thanks to an enterprising Illinois Instructor, we will have a table at the following location:

Wow! A great opportunity to present Appleseed.
I cannot wait to see everyone and have such a good start to the new Appleseed year. Come on people! Lets start this year with a eager, large group giving us a solid foundation to grow on!  ^:)^ O0

Duckcreek51 will be there. If you could post or send address to the school for the G.P.S.  would be deeply appreciated. I know how to get to gun show there and that is about it.  If anyone from the Bootheel of Missouri or Southern Illinois thinking about going, shoot me a PM and we can discuss car pooling.

Thank you so much Duckcreek! We will certainly need all the help we can get, since there will be about 700, yes 700 potential Appleseeders!!!!! If we can get one out of ten people interested in attending an Appleseed, well it would be a huge boost. I'm posting the correct address for anyone who wishes to lend us a hand. The more instructors we have to engage the crowd, the more people we can reach.

Thank you for the directions. I talked swampcat into helping as long as there is no college homework to do. See you there.

ok...now we need some quick planning:

1. we need to meet before the opening to make a plan.  (how about very early breakfast...lots of places off of 55/70. 
2. do we need shifts?
3. clean pants/shirts...no holes...etc.etc.
4. we could all camp out at the secret lair after the show and do a little shooting...especially for those with a long drive...my prices are much better than a hotel...FREE.

I am sure mutti has already got everything covered but I am big on avoiding the 5P syndrome.

Mutti

7:30 am pre-planning - PM mutti if interested. See ya' there with my cleanest pants and brightest Appleseed Shirt.  ;D
