  • Western Marylanders - Driving to Annapolis is too far, right? And you certainly don't want to hang out with "City Folk" in Baltimore area...

    Attend a Project Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship Event!
    (Just across the border, past Harper's Ferry, Kearneysville, WV)

    Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship clinics are fun, and your shooting will improve!

    Also, you might learn some things... do you know:
    • When and where did the Revolutionary War begin?
    • When and where was the American Revolution won?
    • What caused the Regulars (British Redcoats) to break and run in less than 2 minutes of fighting at the North Bridge?
    • Who fired the first shots on Lexington Green?


    Can you shot 4MOA? What's an MOA?

    Learn all these things and MORE at an Appleseed!

    Find an Appleseed event in West Virginia here.

    One-Day Project Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship Clinic June 16th

    Shooters!

    There's only a few spots left for the one-day Project Appleseed in Kearneysville, WV, at the Leetown Gun Club IWLA.
    This is a rimfire-only event.
    Go here to register for that event.


    Can you put five rounds in a 1" square at 25 yds prone (not on a bench)?

    Project Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship Clinics are not just .22s, and not just for kids!

    We hope to see you on the line!

    Western Marylanders!
    Don't want to drive over to... "blue-ish" parts of Maryland?
    Kearneysville, West Virginia is close!

    Come join us for the Patriot's Weekend events at the Leetown Gun Club / Isaac Walton League of America (IWLA) range in Kearneysville, WV.

    April 2022:
    - Friday April 29th; Half-day event from 12:00 thru 4:30 PM.
    - Saturday/Sunday April 30th thru May 1st; Regular, two-day Project Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship clinic, and Patriot's Day weekend event.

    October 2022:
    - Friday October 7th; Half-day event from 12:00 thru 4:30 PM.
    - Saturday/Sunday October 8 thru 9th; Regular, two-day Project Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship clinic.

    The event on April 29th is a Half-day Clinic; it is not a full project Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship Clinic. It's safety, a little bit of prone shooting, a Red Coat only, and then you're done. It is a great opportunity to get people to see how good the instruction is, and how much fun it is! (there's a description on the main Appleseed site) - tell everyone!

    The event on April 30 thru May 1st is a Two-day Project Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship clinic... Except that it is part of the nation-wide month of April's celebration of Patriot's Day (19 APRIL, 1775). What happened on that day? Come to an Appleseed and here the AMAZING story!

    Also, on Patriot's Day events (like this one), there's special shirts and patches (FREE) to participants (See pics). And if you score Rifleman, there is a special Betsy Ross/Patriot's Day Rifleman patch!

    We hope to see you on the line!
