Hey everybody in western Washington and western Oregon.

We are planning an August 9-10, 2008 Appleseed shoot in Castle Rock WA.
Castle Rock is 60 miles north of Portland OR.

Chime in here if you can make it.

visit http://www.appleseedinfo.org/ to find out more about the Appleseed Project.

Now is a good time to plan carpooling etc.

YES!!! Count me in. Anyone in North Clark County, Battle Ground to Cougar, pm me to carpool. I can take 2 more people and their gear. Lets make this happen.
 
That's the spirit, carpool, food share, bulk buy ammo. work together to make it happen.

Mark K. C.... I'm down in Woodland...we're practically neighbors..

Can't wait to meet you.

ooOOOooOOOoohhh

i never know what's going on until it's happening, so i can't confirm :rolleyes:
 
I've looked for something like this for a while, but I have to be all the way across the country that particular weekend -- are there any plans already in place for another Appleseed in the Northwest, so I can get it on the calendar now?
 
I hope to see all of you there.

Oldcowhand; there is a shoot scheduled Oct. 18-19, 2008 in Yakima. There will be more shoots scheduled as the regional program gains traction. Where are you from?

Hi Wheeler44,
I looked on the Appleseed website and could not find the Castlerock shoot listed (in the online registration section), but did find the one for Yakima in Oct.
I'm a newby to the Appleseed shoot/organization concept, so far I like what I have found out.
Do you have to be a member to participate, or is it open to all?
Will this be at a shooting range or private land or?
Any info would be appreciated, time, place, cost, equipment needed etc., as well as any registration procedures if necessary. I have browsed the Appleseed forum and gotten some basic general info.
If I can get some more specific info about this shoot, I'll post it in another forum that I belong to that has some Washington/Oregon shooters.
I'm a USMC veteran & live in Vancouver.
Thanks,
Rick

Yes there is a shoot in Yakima in Oct., we are still filling out paperwork etc. for the shoot in Castle Rock and I will PM any and all interested parties as soon as online reg. is available.

there is a lot to like.
Do you have to be a member to participate, or is it open to all?
open to all (well, no subversive groups please) who can safely handle a firearm in a structured setting.
Will this be at a shooting range or private land or?
private land
Any info would be appreciated, time,
8:00 AM sign in
Wades place (Wade is an Appleseed Instructor in training) in between Castle Rock and Winlock WA
$70.00 for two days plus a one time "range development fee" of $10.00
equipment needed
A rifle, 200+ rounds per day, a sling (optional but encouraged)
Water, food, sunscreen, shooting mat (or carpet scrap) it helps if you have sighted in your rifle, If you plan on bringing a centerfire you may consider a rimfire as well, easier on the body, pocketbook and your neighbor on the line.
as well as any registration procedures if necessary. I have browsed the Appleseed forum and gotten some basic general info.
the basic info will get you there as soon as the paperwork is filed.

The most important thing to bring is a teachable attitude.

I look forward to meeting you all there.


If I can get some more specific info about this shoot, I'll post it in another forum that I belong to that has some Washington/Oregon shooters.
PM me with contact info and I'll get you what you need.

On the board

The August Appleseed should be on the board today. Early registration is encouraged as the shoot will be limited to 25 attendees. I will send PMs to all that have expressed an interest in attending.

I'm excited! I've been wanting to do an Appleseed for quite a while.
 
News Flash

In a sudden fit of generosity the good folks at Appleseed have decided that for the rest of 2008 ALL WOMEN SHOOT FOR FREE.....Yes all women shoot for absolutely free. So fellas bring the wives, the girlfriend, daughters, mothers and sisters. PM me with any questions

Drgong, nothing wrong with a .22. That is one of the few I'm going to take. However you may be right, being that you would have to travel all across the United States to attend.
 
indeed, though they do appleseeds in NC thankfully. Still not decided when I go if I should get a .22 lr or use a mosin, as i think the mosin would make me hurt too much shooting.
