Six stalwart students showed up at the range located outside LaLuz NM for a learning experience, like no other.  An Appleseed event set in the great outdoors of Southern New Mexico.  Mrs. Smith (NM state coordinator), Mr. Smith, her loyal and dedicated spouse, and hotairbill the SB set out to win the hearts and minds and trigger fingers of those stalwart.  We had the able assistance of blue hats, OLsalt44 and DaughterOLiberty and were thankful for their efforts.

We had two days of fun in the sun, comraderie, excellant instruction and many opportunities to turn "money into noise" i.e. we shot a bunch too. The next event at Sidney Paul Gordon range will be in July ( we love the heat) and will be a LadySeed.  It promises to be a worthwhile event as the group, A Girl with a Gun, local chapter has indicated high interest in attending.  You Go, Nan!

It was a hot one, but worth it! So much real improvement among the students, and congrats to Scott H. On his Rifleman!!!
