Thanks for the heads up.  I received an appleseed class as a gift a couple of years ago, need to make the time to attend.

Yep, for the sake of completeness, below is the comprehensive list of the upcoming ones.  If you do plan to attend, please register early otherwise they will cancel the event.

 

Palmerton was cancelled this weekend so I'm trying to get the word out on all future ones.  Even if you can't attend, spread the good word.  Thanks.

Are these classes worth it?

I think it is. Especially if most of rifle experince involves a bipod or bench rest only. It will cover prone, sitting/kneeling, standing working with a sling. It won't make you a sharpshooter (i.e. a rifleman in Appleseed speak) over 2 days, but it will give the fundamentals and allow you to practice the techniques you are taught until the next one. I did it back in may at SJSC/Bangers and really enjoy it. If I was able to I would already be signed up for October. I will be going back as soon as I can

 

I'll be going to Palmerton with my son Oct 24-25. Looking forward to it!

I'll be that the Elverson one on 9/12-9/13.
