"The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."
-- Thomas Paine, December 23, 1776
Do you know how you, your rifle, and your equipment handle extremes in temperature? Come find out at Oklahoma's next Appleseed marksmanship clinic at Afton, OK on January 29-30, 2011.
Appleseed does not quit for the winter... we see it as a unique challenge and learning opportunity, and we are looking for dedicated Riflemen to join us for our lineup of events during the cold winter months, which we have dubbed "Project Winterseed." While other shooting organizations take a hiatus, Appleseed pushes on with the mission of turning this country back into a Nation of Riflemen.
Because of the late January date of this event, bitter cold weather is virtually ensured. Summer soldiers and sunshine patriots need not apply.
This event is being held at Excalibur Sporting Goods in Afton. The shop will be available for shooters to take breaks and warm up in, but shooters should be prepared to spend all day outside on the ground, firing from field positions.
Providing that the weather is deemed bitter enough by myself and the other Instructors, those who rise to the challenge and shoot Expert on the Army Qualification Test at this event will receive a special winter color scheme Rifleman's patch.

Come be a part of the rebirth.
