Had a great weekend and a great turnout even though we got rained out around noon. We got a good portion of the instruction in despite the rain we did shoot in. However, everyone came back for Sunday which was much nicer. We did have some catch up to do so we got that done. Even though we lost half a day we still had 6 new riflemen and two requalifications. Great job guys, you earned it. Not to mention the new riflemen, this was their first Appleseed event. Thank you to all the people who came out and a big shout out and thank you to the instructors who came out to make this a great shoot.
THANKS EVERYONE!!!! ðŸ'ðŸ»ðŸ'ðŸ»ðŸ'ðŸ»ðŸ'ðŸ»ðŸ'ðŸ»

Great turnout! Seems the weather is all whacky across the mid west. Good Job!

6th Great-Grandson to Eleazer Hamlin (1732-1807) who answered the Lexington alarm, April 19, 1775, he was second lieutenant in Captain James Hatch's company and marched from West Parish, Pembroke, to Scituate and Marshfield. In list of officers in General Thomas' regiment, commissioned May 19, 1775, he held the rank of captain, and Jan. 1, 1776, he was captain in the Twenty-third Continental Infantry. He was in the army at Peekskill, New York, Dec. 27, 1776. Tradition in the family gave it that because of his large family at home he was retired with the rank of brevot major and that General Washington on bidding him farewell gave him $200 in Continental money. Four of his sons: Africa, Europe (my 5th Great Grandfather), America and Eleazer, and a son-in-law, Major Seth Phillips, served in the revolutionary army.
