East Range Sportsmen and Conservation Club hosted our Project Appleseed event this weekend.  What a fantastic range and host for us.  Thank you to them for allowing us the use of the range. 

We had six participants signed up, but one had a church conflict come up.  All of the five who were able to attend were first time Appleseeders.

Paul - we missed you.  Look forward to meeting you at a future event.

Eric - thank you for 7th stepping for us by inviting your friends Paul and Peter.  You were knocking on the door - next event should see you cross that rifleman score.

Peter - Thanks for persisting throughout the weekend.  Great attitude!

Tim - Congratulations on the 228 Rifleman score and for consistently shooting well.

Jill - you also were very close to that rifleman's score on you first Appleseed event.  As you pointed out, the seated position was your downfall.  A little more work on that with some dry-fire and practice getting the first round off a bit quicker should see you get your score up alongside Tim's.

Gyle - thanks for being an awesome Host range representative and for working with us all weekend. 

Pictures to follow a bit later.
