House Rules for Buckman Tavern

[Appleseed]

Welcome to Buckman Tavern, Project Appleseed's open discussion board. 

We're glad you're here and hope you have fun!  Please respect fellow instructors and guests by adhering to our simple house rules.

1.  Participate with courtesy, politeness, and respect.  If you want rough and tumble, there are other sites for it.
2.  Second Amendment advocacy is welcome.  Beyond that, political discussion should be confined to the Revolutionary War era.  More details can be found at https://appleseedinfo.org/smf/index.php?topic=33583.0
3.  No trolling.  Trolling is defined as posting to elicit a negative response.
4.  Project Appleseed is a family-friendly community.  The following content is not allowed:

• derogatory content of a racial, religious, or sexual nature,
• links or information about illegal modifications to firearms,
• posting content which reflects poorly upon Project Appleseed or our website.

5.  Respect copyrighted material by including a link to the original source.
6.  Personal classified ads should be confined to the Steals & Deals board.

Special Considerations for Appleseed volunteers:
1.  All Appleseed Instructor Guidelines apply here.
2.  If you can't or wouldn't say it on a firing line in front of students, don't post it here.
3.  Please use instructor-only boards to discuss instructor business.

Everybody should walk the Freedom trail beginning in Lexington. Buckman Tavern is still there and they sell Buckman Tavern root beer. I buy some when I'm in Lexington and give a real Buckman Tavern root beer to the highest scoring AQT by a new shooter at my Appleseed shoots.

Once a year in the fall (before deer season in Maine) I gather a convoy of cars to Lexington. Yes folks, it is more than just a story.

@the old guide: yup yup Buckmans Tavern is indeed still a place, pretty neat actually, you should send some of those Buckmans root beers down to Lubbock Texas for AQT rewards lol.

That's a great idea. I'll have to steal that!

Thank you to the Bartenders at Buckman Tavern!

I've been noticing all the great Appleseed posts our folks are putting out on Facebook — they're well done and they speak to exactly the people we want to reach. But here's the thing: without enough likes, shares, and comments, those posts don't travel far.

The fix is simple — if each of us took a few seconds to like, share, or comment, we could dramatically expand our reach to future instructors and students.

Could we ask instructors to mention this at events and include it in After Action Reports? A small habit for us could mean a big boost for Project Appleseed.

Let's make our message go farther!

My apologies in advance if this is not the correct forum and if I am off the mark here

You're absolutely right, CAANY. The way social media algorithms work, the more interactions a post has, the more people their system sticks it in front of.

Likes/Loves etc are good, comments are even better! 

If every member of the cadre and everyone that loves Appleseed who has a social media account would interact with the posts on their state/region pages, AND on the national page, those posts will get seen by more people!

What say you, gang?
