We had a wonderful day of Instructor Only shooting with perfect weather.
This event served multiple purposes: Practice using the Covid protocol for up-coming Appleseed events, and allow 9 dedicated instructors, who are usually teaching, to do some 25 meter AQTs, which turned out to be a bit of an eye-opener for all. We had three requalify: Cleveland (who has shot 50/50 KDs) squeaked by at 212 & 213; CorgiMom (another excellent KD shooter) with 217, and leadslinger at 219.  Teaching moment for us instructors: more dry-fire time and do a 25 meter from time to time.
It was a distinct pleasure to congregate again (finally) with some of my Appleseed family! Thanks to Bug_7, Christa Forrester and CorgiMom for representing very well the female contigent. You guys always do a wonderful service of keeping the guys "civil".

Huzzah!  I am so proud that our Tennessee Valley Cadre requalifies annually.  I think it is important. 
In giving us dominion over the animal kingdom, God has signified His will that we subdue the beast within ourselves.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Benjamin Franklin, 1775

"A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined; to which end a uniform and well-digested plan is requisite; and their safety and interest require that they should promote such manufactories as tend to render them independent of others for essential, particularly military, supplies."  George Washington 1790

"[T]o preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of the people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them…"
- Richard Henry Lee, Declaration Signer

Practice every time you get a chance. - Bill Monroe

What a great day. Thanks for putting this together. Was awesome to get together with fellow instructors after the brief break and to try to sort out new equipment.
