CHANNING - The Sagola Township Sportsmen’s Club will be hosting a Project Appleseed Rifle event on August 26-27. Project Appleseed returns for another great weekend of marksmanship, history and heritage. Project Appleseed is a nonprofit all-volunteer organization that teaches three things: The traditional skills of the American Rifleman, the true history of the founding of the country on April 19, 1775 and why marksmanship was essential that day.
The two-day event will include instruction on rifle safety, proper marksmanship techniques and live fire practice. Students will also have the opportunity to earn the coveted Rifleman patch by shooting a qualifying score on the Appleseed Qualification Test (AQT).
In addition to expert marksmanship instruction, students will hear historical storytellers passionately share the Three Strikes of the Match, a series of three pivotal events that ignited the Revolutionary War.
Project Appleseed events are suitable for both new and experienced shooters. Families are more than welcome. All rifles from .22 rimfire to .32 centerfire are welcome.
