Spring is almost here and the Appleseed Project is back at it. This is a great way to dust off the cob webs and get back on target. No tacticool, just fundamental marksmanship and a refresher on American history.

Very kid friendly, under 21, women and military are free. Everyone else is damb cheap. Over 2 days you can plan on 500 aimed rounds down range.

You can get more information at the links below or send me a PM. Some loaner rifles may be available if you ask nice :)

Never been to one. Might do the April one just for fun. The wife would be free.

I shot my first Appleseed back in October and I can attest that this is a great program. Even if you consider yourself an accomplished rifleman you will be pleasantly surprised at how much you can learn on these two days. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable and friendly; they stress the fundamental aspects of marksmanship along with a hefty dose of history.

Highly recommended!

I really wanted to come down and bring my daughter with me, I am off next weekend, but she has to do some testing for Karate that cannot be missed.

Don't miss the opportunity to bring your daughter with you to the Appleseed Project. Even though she may be unable to come to this particular event, they are held all over Colorado (and all over the US) regularly.

The next schedule event in the area is on the weekend of April 17 & 18 but, if you are planning to attend, I suggest that you sign up early because they fill up quickly.

So has anyone commited yet? I will be there Saturday with my son (10). The weather looks good, should be a nice day.

There is still plenty of room on this shoot but the April shoots are filling fast. Brighton is full already and Fountain is over 50% so if you are going to do it sign up soon.

Great, plan to be there by 8:30 and bring a camp chair if you have one.

See you there.[Beer]
