Meet up New Brunswick and Nova Scotia Projet Mapleseed events

Want to learn or brush up on the fundamentals of rifle marksmanship?

This is a terrific way for new shooters to get some quality instructions and for experienced shooters to improve their skills

Project Mapleseed is offering one day clinics in NB and NS again this summer and there are still some spots available.

Fredericton (Sunbury range) June 27

Woodstock July 26 has one spot left

Nova Scotia's Cape Nova Rifle and Pistol club is hosting two events August 22,23 at the Queensville DNR range.

Check out the Project Mapleseed website for more information and the links to the tickets on the events page.

Sadly there are no Mapleseed clinics in Quebec. I live in Montreal and the nearest one will be in Ontario two hours and thirty minutes drive away.

Unfortunately the range restrictions by the Quebec CFO are a limiting factor for our program.

Ottawa area is the only place I've seen listed. I've been looking for a couple years and have pretty much abandoned hope.

Looks great. Cape Breton is a bit far for me to go but I hope everyone has a couple good days out!

Thank-you! We do our best, the volunteers are driving 4-6 hours sometimes to get to some of these. We are grateful for their commitment.

Posting for visibility but the mobile site events page has a poor layout where the dates and locations look to be hyperlinks (red text) and you need to scroll sideways to see the sign up link.

I know y'all are volunteer and I appreciate the org but had someone else not mentioned it on this sub I would still be waiting to register. If you don't have the uptake on these dates that might be why

Will there be any events closer to HRM? 280km is a bit of a stretch for me.

u/Atlantic_Mapleseed Jun 16 '26

There was one at AMA in May.

u/galvzBR Jun 16 '26

Oh I missed that one…I’ll keep an eye out for it

u/Atlantic_Mapleseed Jun 16 '26

Hope to see you on the line someday.
