project appleseed
Project Appleseed is a rifle marksmanship program that focuses on teaching traditional rifle marksmanship from standing, sitting/kneeling, and prone positions over a two-day weekend shooting clinic for what is termed an "Appleseed". It is the primary focus of The Revolutionary War Veterans Association (RWVA), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that teaches and promotes traditional rifle marksmanship, while also teaching American heritage and history with the intent of encouraging people to become active civically. Project Appleseed is apolitical, a legal requirement of 501(c)(3) organizations.The volunteers of Project Appleseed also participate in history-only presentations (no shooting involved) called "Libertyseed" events.
