ITB

Please join me in congratulating T. Wolf for being promoted to Designated Shoot Boss.

Travis is one of the most organized, dedicated and squared-away instructors I know.  He's also a work horse -  he has worked at least 8 events every year since 2018.

One of our colleagues put it most succinctly...

"Travis continues to show a drive for excellence in Appleseed.  His dedication to Project Appleseed has never waivered.  He has shown leadership both as a state coordinator and shoot boss."

Congratulations, Travis!

Thanks folks! I appreciate all of the support and guidance I've received from so many different people in the AS cadre over the years. Thanks for being there for me - I could not do this without you. I look forward to coordinating a couple of RKD events in MI and NY this season - hope to see some of you out there O0

"Responsibility is a unique concept... You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished. You may delegate it, but it is still with you... If responsibility is rightfully yours, no evasion, or ignorance or passing the blame can shift the burden to someone else. Unless you can point your finger at the man who is responsible when something goes wrong, then you have never had anyone really responsible.�
― Hyman G. Rickover

"Scoring is a function of great execution, and winning Is the result, but thinking about winning can pull your focus off of proper execution in a competition. Thinking about process is the answer."- Lanny Bassham

During the seventy years which elapsed between the overthrow of the Stuart dynasty and the victory of Wolfe on the Heights of Abraham, the relations between the American colonies and the British government were, on the whole, peaceful; and the history of the colonies, except for the great and romantic struggle with New France, would have been almost destitute of striking incidents. In view of the perpetual menace from France, it was clearly unwise for the British government to irritate the colonies, or do anything to weaken their loyalty; and they were accordingly left very much to themselves. Still, they were not likely to be treated with any great liberality,â€"for such was not then, as it is hardly even yet, the way of governments...

They tell us, sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house?
 Besides, sir, we shall not fight our battles alone. There is a just God who presides over the destinies of nations; and who will raise up friends to fight our battles for us.
Patrick Henry
