The other 3 were right in the hunt!!  Robin 202, Mike 150 (having equipment issues), John 205.

We had several clear hits counts targets.  Way to go everyone!!

This was an incredibly focused group.  Working hard, asking questions, taking notes. 

I made the comment early on Saturday that I had a bunch of Pistoleer™ patches to give out.  They took up the challenge!!

The instructors did a great job working with the students and their hard work was much appreciated!!

Thank you everyone for being safe.

Thank you also for helping us tear down and clean up. 

Hope to see you all out again!

April and I were really impressed with the students.  They all had great attitudes.  Worked hard to apply what they were learning.  And their scores were a great reflection of that. 

It was a lot of fun to help out at this event.

The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed -- where the government refuses to stand for reelection and silences those who protest; where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees*. However improbable these contingencies may seem today, facing them unprepared is a mistake a free people get to make only once.

Thank you for a great weekend.  We had a wonderful time and learned a lot. I'll keep practicing to incorporate all the learnings.  Really appreciate the instructors watching my shooting and offering suggestions for improvement.  I gained insight from each of you.  I even appreciated the gentle "kick in the butt" when I needed it - thank you April. ;)

I'd highly encourage Appleseed Instructors from other areas to attend a Northern Cal event.  Joe and Laurie have created a great team and program.  I was really impressed by how well the instructors worked together to deliver a high quality shoot focused on student needs - and for keeping everything safe.  There are some little things the team does that makes it special - a good example is having all the instructors sign a Rifleman score target.  That's a nice touch. 

I've been fortunate enough to attend Appleseed events in 4 states, and I'd list last weeks storytelling as some of the best.  The basic stories were familiar but the way the instructors told them drew students into the stories and helped highlight the significance.  It was really nice to see all instructors tell stories.

Thank you for an excellent weekend - I look forward to future shoots in N. Cal.
