I hope the story of April 19th will forever be remembered by those who benefit from the sacrifices made that day.

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood,
And fired the shot heard round the world.

— Emerson, "Concord Hymn"

Hat tip to the folks at Project Appleseed.

https://appleseedinfo.org/about/

Learn marksmanship. Support liberty. Join the line.

Project Appleseed™ is a non-partisan and apolitical group of men and women (known as the Revolutionary War Veterans Association) committed to upholding the values and principles of America’s founding fathers. You will find that many of the values that our forefathers relied on to win our independence are still very much in demand today.

Through clinics and events, we teach rifle marksmanship and the history of April 19, 1775, the first day of the American Revolution. No matter your skill level, you will learn the marksmanship skills that were so crucial to the success of our nation’s founders. Aside from the fun and camaraderie, these events are designed for you to take away a renewed sense of civic responsibility that you can use in your own community.

Our goal is to inspire Americans with our amazing history and return America to a nation of Riflemen again. You can’t write the story of America without including several chapters about the marksmanship skills and bravery of our forefathers. At Project Appleseed, we honor the pursuit of liberty of our ancestors who fought so bravely to secure it. We teach the art of rifle and pistol marksmanship during 1 or 2-day clinics. We welcome Americans of all ages and experience levels. Owning and mastering a rifle or pistol is part of our American heritage.
