“RWVA is launching a nationwide effort to rebuild America as a Nation of Riflemen. Instead of Apple trees, the goal is to plant the Spirit of the Rifleman. It is time once again to sow the seeds of the Tree of Liberty in every town, village and city of America. This is our new Appleseed program. With your help, we’ll spread the American tradition of practical rifle marksmanship across our great land. We’ll work together to find or create the facilities and resources to allow every able and willing citizen to learn to shoot a rifle safely and well close to home. We’ll help each other gain the skills and equipment needed to defend our country, if the need arises.We will establish again what once stood as the primary protection of our unalienable liberties.” (11/05)
