HUZZAH! HUZZAH! HUZZAH!

Tennessee had a record year in 2023 with 390 students!!!!  That is 17% more than our previous record year (2014...334 students)!!!!!

I could not have done this without a lot of help from surrounding states and our excellent TN cadre.  I would like to recognize some of our most active instructors of 2023. 

Cleveland-29 events (17/12)
ArmyVet-18 events (16/2)
special_K-13 events (13/0)
Old Navy Doc-13 events (13/0)
Tennessee Beast-13 events (7/6)
Maximum effort-11 events (11/0)
Booney Stomper-11 events (10/1)
wileycoyote-9 events (8/1)
Rustygun-7 events (6/1)
BluegrassColonel- 7 events (4/3)
Palousie-6 events (6/0)
Eagle Keeper-6 events (6/0)

The numbers after "events" is a breakdown between "marksmanship clinics" and "other events". 

Thank you so much for your dedication!!!!

"Perhaps you and I have lived with this miracle too long to be properly appreciative. Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again."  Ronald Reagan

Many thanks to all the Tennessee instructors for their efforts this past year. I look forward to seeing how much more Tennessee can grow in 2024.

A special shout out to Tennessee Beast for his dedication to making sure our lines are full and continually finding the state new hosts ranges.
