Participants will learn how to shoot rifles from practical field positions such as the prone, sitting, and standing positions.

They will learn the techniques that will improve their accuracy so they can place 10 rounds in a postage stamp-sized target posted at 25 yards without using extra support such as a bench or sandbags.

Participants will also learn how civilian marksmanship played a pivotal role in the founding of our nation.

Project Appleseed welcomes attendance by all individuals regardless of experience level, political affiliation, gender, or religion. Instructors have received specific training through an Adaptive Appleseed program to accommodate individuals with disabilities.
