We had another great Appleseed event up in beautiful Mason, WI not far from the shores of Lake Gitchegumee (aka Lake Superior) with our gracious Host Eric and Hostess Kitten who opened up their home to their fellow Appleseeders and enabled all who attended to enjoy the Appleseed experience!  :bow: O0

Once again we had another motivated, engaged group of students on the line.   :bow: As an added plus we added one new Rifleman to Wisconsin's roster and had two more Riflemen re-establish their credentials.  O0 Congratulations new Rifleman Issac 226 (Eric's brother) and congratulations to re-qualifying Riflemen Chad 224 (also Eric's brother) and CJ (who came up our way from my friend and mentor martin's territory via Texas) who re-qualified at 211.  O0 Great work everyone!  O0 O0

Neil, Adrienne, Tanner, Mitchel, Kitten and Mike all exhibited progressively improved marksmanship and with a persistent application of Rifleman's/Riflewoman's persistence will without a doubt crack the 210 score. Please keep up the excellent work.  :~ :~ :~

Congratulations Team Adrienne and Issac the couple who both cleared the final Redcoat!  O0

Special thanks to our designated sniper 6 year old Gabe who moved his Dad's skid-steer out from behind the target line for us.  ;)

Congratulations Mario, aka Bubba, aka Privateer who stepped up and successfully completed his IIT2 PC.  O0 O0 :bow: :bow: :~ :~ ..:.. ..:..

And as always my personal deepest gratitude and respect to the guys behind the line...Privateer, weaslewoods and Doc.  :bow: :bow: :bow: :bow: Without you guys this event would have not happened.

Here come the pics...

I was just doin' what I was told.  Reachin' for the last doughnut.  ( I was wonderin to myself at the time, did he say demonstrate the 'Hasty Sling' or 'Masticate the Tasty Ring"?)  You know now the road I chose.........  **) **) **)


It was a GREAT shoot.  Lots of future riflemen/women there getting very close to the score.  Patriots EVERY ONE to the core.  I would venture a bet/guess that the same individual that could drive a skidsteer at his age could become one of our youngest Rifleman as well.  Keep up the good work.

Thanx all for another outstanding weekend.

Looks like a cozy range. Going to steal the doughnut/hasty for my next demo!
Those who stay will be champions. Those who persist will be riflemen.
