Pennsylvania, or as it's playfully called by our imaginative friend, Percival Peculiar, the world's most famous groundhog detective - "Puzzle-ylvania". This isn't your everyday kind of state. It's a place where the rivers tickle the feet of the mountains and the forests whisper secrets to the towns. And in this jigsaw puzzle of a state, there's a rambunctious group of kids who love nothing more than participating in the thrilling sport of Riflery. Now, don’t be confused, these aren't just any regular kids, oh no, they are the ‘Riflery Rascals’! These wild, adventurous souls have eyes sharper than the eagle that soars over the Allegheny mountains, and a stillness as serene as the placid waters of Lake Erie when they aim their targets. You see, these kids know their rifles aren't just metal and wood but their trusted buddies, lovingly named; ‘Bolt’, ‘Trigger’, and ‘Scope’. And then, there's ‘Barrel’, the most mischievous rifle of all. Barrel loves to leap and dance, making sure each shot is a fun-filled adventure for the Riflery Rascals. Whether they’re practicing in the crisp, cool morning when the sun peeks through the Penn's woods or under the twinkling, velvet canvas of the night sky, each shot echoes with laughter and camaraderie. So, if you ever find yourself in this corner of 'Puzzle-ylvania', do not be surprised if you see a groundhog named Percival cheering on a group of kids, their eyes twinkling like stars, laughing, learning and mastering the art of Riflery. They are the Riflery Rascals - the pride of Pennsylvania, and their adventure is just beginning!
