For some time now, Jamey and I have been wanting to take a shooting course to learn about marksmanship and gun safety. Jamey saw a spot on the news about an organization that combines American History and learning to become a Rifleman. The
Appleseed Project is run by the RWVA, Revolutionary War Veterans Association, and has been in operation since 2007. They host events in most states and have had nearly 60,000 attendees over the last 3 years. In addition to marksmanship and the history of our nation, they promote being an ACTIVE member of society. They preach that if you are not participating in the lo
cal and federal government you will get the government you deserve. Since all of these are near and dear to our hearts, it was a great experience. The event was from 8:30Am to 6:00 PM Saturday AND Sunday. Jamey attended with me t
he first day and Hannah on the second. One of the great philosophies is to get the whole family involved. With that in mind, all woman and children under 21 are FREE. We all learned a lot. After spending the weekend shooting 22s, I got to fire an AR-15 at a long range, 500 yd., target with iron sites (no scope). We were shooting 16" targets from nearly 1/3 of a mile. Pretty cool for a city boy.
