                APPLESEED RIFLEMAN BOOT CAMP

This premier five day marksmanship class will be led by Nickle, RWVA Appleseed Master Instructor and will be concluded by the following Appleseed Event held on July 26 and July 27, 2014.

The following was written in the past of this range and it still holds true today:

"There is an urgent need for sturdy RIFLEMAN of all abilities to gather on the firing lines of New Bremen's "25 METER RANGE", "200 YARD RANGE" and "400 YARD RANGE", for a weekend of MARKSMANSHIP AND HERITAGE. Shoot Bosses, Instructors of all levels, and students with a burning desire are needed.

This is true RIFLEMANS country located between the Western Adirondack Region and the Tug Hill Region of New York State. The area is known for it's sudden weather changes and there will always be the chance of presenting WINTERSEED PATCHES at ANY of these events. Snow, Sleet, Hail, Blazing Sun, Rain, Fog, Sub-Zero Temperatures, Melting Heat, Mud, Blowing Sand and Beautiful Blue Sky, You may see it all between the first and the last REDCOAT!!!!!

Bring your cameras for the area offers wide ranges of rolling hills, wide fields, raging rivers and mountains. It is the land of the woodsman and farmer. Amish wagons and log trucks cross the roads under the giant power windmills!!! You will no doubt see some of the abundant wildlife that ranges from the MILLIONS of blackflies etc., to the occasional MOOSE !!!! Deer are all over and EXTREME CAUTION should be taken when driving in this region. The Town of Crogan has in many years been ranked as having the highest bear population in New York State. The dogs are friendly but also like to chew on your earplugs.

Bring your appetite. This is the home of the world record largest CHEESECAKE made by the Kraft Cheese Plant in Lowville. Fresh Cheese Curd is available at the LOWVILLE CO-OP. VINNY"S PIZZA in Croghan has the best pie north of "the city". And a small ice cream cone from WISHY'S across the street will feed a family of four!!!! The NEW BREMEN GENERAL STORE will keep you happy, supply your needs and can sell you a club membership too.

Yes, staff at all levels is needed. But, if you wish that you could ever get to shoot, this is the event for you to come to, step to the line and "BE A RIFLEMAN"!!!!".
