On rather short notice, (last Wednesday?), the El Paso Team put together a pretty good showing for the Ft Bliss Rod and Gun Club's Membership drive. There was an IDPSA and IDPA pistolero event going on, a blackpowder demonstration- imagine a Revolutionary War attired gent with an Appleseed T-Shirt - a challenge with Red Coats that some of the more swaggering folks took up.......and failed at because they had not been instructed by Appleseeders; TSRA's Rich Gilliland hawking spots on the upcoming Appleseeds in El Paso at FBRG on May 16-17 and EPCC on May 23-24; Marcia Allen's wandering about and handing out flyers while engaging folks; I was using the club's internet connection to show the RWVA website with music from the Movie "Last of the Mohicans" playing in the background.
Talked with a lot of folks about Appleseed and have commitments from several. It was good to see there are still bailers amongst the deck chair crowd here in El Paso.
Rifleman. That says it all.

Sounds good Mike,
Hopefully we'll see a few of them on the range next weekend
