Ohio AS,

Michigan has set the date and location for their Instructor Boot Camp (IBC).  They do a fantastic job with this and I highly recommend this weekend for all IIT's, Instructors and SBs.  It is a great weekend, well organized and covers a great deal of content.  Well worth the weekend.  Details below and more to follow.  If you have any questions, post them here.

"Appleseed cadre --

This is an early heads up to save the date for February 22-24, 2019 for the Michigan Instructor Boot Camp at Capital Area Sportsman League in Lansing, Michigan.

I'll send out a detail review of what we'll cover with details of the agenda and learning expectations later this year, but do mark down the date and make every attempt to attend.  While participation isn't mandatory it is...ehh ummmm...STRONGLY encouraged   &) &) &) &)

Seriously, it has proven to be not only fun but also extremely useful towards your instructor skill sets.  For the IT, you can brush up on techniques and learn new tips from your peers.  For the IIT, going to an IBC is worth a whole season of working shoots.  Seriously...you need to be there.

Look for the detailed notification from me later this year.

Your loving and benevolent state dictator,

SteelThunder"

Hammbone,

IBC's usually do not include any actual shooting.  It is two days of working on all parts of our instructional program, working on our heritage presentations, and learning from other Instructors and Shoot Bosses.  See separate post in the Ohio thread on possible Ohio IBM in Feb.

Great information, good time, wonderful people, you won't regret going.  Michigan puts on one of the best IBCs in the country.

I look forward to the Ohio IBC.  It has been too long.

Last evening, it occurred to me that when a defender of Liberty is called home, their load lands upon the shoulders of the defenders left behind. Just as the Founders did their duty for Liberty, every subsequent generation must continue their work lest Liberty perish. As there is no way for the remaining adults to take on the work of those that die, we must pass the ideals and duties on to the children. -PHenery
