Dear Shareholder:

      We are pleased to report that during the  semi-annual  period,  the Trusts
continued to provide  monthly  income,  as well as the  opportunity to invest in
various  portfolios of municipal  securities.  This report  contains the Trusts'
unaudited financial statements and a listing of the portfolios' holdings.

      The portfolio  management  team  continuously  monitors the municipal bond
market and adjusts the portfolios in order to gain exposure to various  issuers,
revenue  sources and security  types.  This strategy  enables the Trusts to move
among  different  sectors,  credits and coupons to capitalize on changing market
conditions.

The following is a summary of significant  accounting  policies  followed by the
Trusts.

SECURITIES VALUATION:  Municipal securities  (including  commitments to purchase
such  securities  on a  "when-issued"  basis)  are valued on the basis of prices
provided by dealers or pricing  services  selected under the supervision of each
Trust's Board of Directors/Trustees (the "Board"). In determining the value of a
particular  security,  pricing services may use certain information with respect
to  transactions  in such  securities,  quotations  from  bond  dealers,  market
transactions  in  comparable   securities  and  various   relationships  between
securities.  Short-term  investments  may  be  valued  at  amortized  cost.  Any
securities  or other assets for which such  current  market  quotations  are not
readily  available  are valued at fair value as  determined  in good faith under
procedures  established by, and under the general supervision and responsibility
of, each Trust's Board.

SECURITIES  TRANSACTIONS  AND INVESTMENT  INCOME:  Securities  transactions  are
recorded on trade date.  Realized and unrealized gains and losses are calculated
on the  identified  cost basis.  Each Trust also records  interest  income on an
accrual basis and amortizes  premium and accretes discount to interest income on
securities purchased using the interest method.

FINANCIAL  FUTURES  CONTRACTS:  A futures  contract is an agreement  between two
parties to buy and sell a financial instrument for a set price on a future date.
Initial margin deposits are made upon entering into futures contracts and can be
either  cash or  securities.  During the period the  futures  contract  is open,
changes in the value of the  contract  are  recognized  as  unrealized  gains or
losses by  "marking-to-market"  on a daily basis to reflect the market  value of
the contract at the end of each day's  trading.  Variation  margin  payments are
made or  received,  depending  upon  whether  unrealized  gains  or  losses  are
incurred.  When the contract is closed,  a Trust records a realized gain or loss
equal to the  difference  between  the  proceeds  from (or cost of) the  closing
transaction and the Trust's basis in the contract.  Financial futures contracts,
when used by the  Trusts,  help in  maintaining  a  targeted  duration.  Futures
contracts  can be sold to  effectively  shorten  an  otherwise  longer  duration
portfolio.  In the same sense,  futures contracts can be purchased to lengthen a
portfolio that is shorter than its duration  target.  Thus, by buying or selling
futures contracts, the Trusts may attempt to manage the duration of positions so
that  changes in  interest  rates do not change the  duration  of the  portfolio
unexpectedly.

SEGREGATION:  In cases in which the Investment  Company Act of 1940, as amended,
and the interpretive positions of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
require that each Trust segregate assets in connection with certain  investments
(e.g.,  when  issued  securities,   reverse  repurchase  agreements  or  futures
contracts), each Trust will, consistent with certain interpretive letters issued
by the SEC,  designate  on its  books  and  records  cash or other  liquid  debt
securities  having a  market  value at least  equal  to the  amount  that  would
otherwise be required to be physically segregated.

FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is each Trust's  intention to continue to be treated as
a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute
sufficient net income to shareholders. For this reason and because substantially
all of the gross  income of each  Trust  consists  of  tax-exempt  interest,  no
Federal income tax provisions are required.  DIVIDENDS AND  DISTRIBUTIONS:  Each
Trust  declares and pays  dividends  and  distributions  to common  shareholders
monthly from net investment  income,  net realized  short-term capital gains and
other sources,  if necessary.  Net long-term capital gains, if any, in excess of
loss carryforwards may be distributed annually.  Dividends and distributions are
recorded on the  ex-dividend  date.  Dividends  and  distributions  to preferred
shareholders are accrued and determined as described in Note 4.

ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles   generally  accepted  in  the  United  States  of  America  requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and  liabilities  and disclosure of contingent  assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial  statements  and the reported  amounts of revenues and
expenses  during the reporting  period.  Actual  results could differ from these
estimates.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION AND BLACKROCK CLOSED-END SHARE EQUIVALENT INVESTMENT PLAN:
Under the revised  deferred  compensation  plan approved by each Trust's  Board,
non-interested Directors/Trustees may elect to defer receipt of all or a portion
of their  annual  compensation.  As of  January 1,  2003,  the Board  elected to
require its  non-interested  members to defer a portion of their annual  complex
compensation  pursuant to the plan.  Deferred amounts earn an approximate return
as though  equivalent dollar amounts had been invested in common shares of other
BlackRock closed-end funds selected by the Directors/Trustees.

   The  deferred  compensation  plan is not  funded and  obligations  thereunder
represent general unsecured claims against the general assets of the Trust. Each
Trust may, however, elect to invest in common shares of those Trusts selected by
the Directors/Trustees in order to match its deferred compensation obligations.

RECLASSIFICATION  OF  CAPITAL  ACCOUNTS:   In  order  to  present  undistributed
(distribution  in excess of) net investment  income ("UNII") and accumulated net
realized  gain  ("Accumulated  Gain")  more  closely  to its tax  character  the
following   accounts,   for  each  of  the  Strategic  Trusts,   were  increased
(decreased):

NOTE  2. AGREEMENTS

Each Trust has an Investment Management Agreement with BlackRock Advisors,  Inc.
(the  "Advisor"),  a  wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  BlackRock,  Inc.  BlackRock
Financial Management, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc., serves
as sub-advisor to the 2018 Trusts. BlackRock, Inc. is an indirect majority owned
subsidiary of The PNCFinancial  Services Group,  Inc. The investment  management
agreement  on the 2018  Trusts  and  Strategic  Trusts  covers  both  investment
advisory  and  administration  services.  Each 2008 Trust has an  Administration
Agreement with Princeton Administrators,  L.P. ("Princeton"), an indirect wholly
owned  affiliate  of  Merrill  Lynch  &Co.,  Inc.   Insured   Municipal  has  an
Administration  Agreement with UBS Global Asset Management (US) Inc.  ("UBSGAM")
(formerly  Brinson  Advisors,  Inc.), an indirect wholly owned asset  management
subsidiary of UBS AG.  Municipal  Target has an  Administration  Agreement  with
Prudential  Investments  LLC ("PI"),  an indirect  wholly  owned  subsidiary  of
Prudential  Financial,  Inc.

Each Trust's investment  advisory fee paid to the Advisor is computed weekly and
payable  monthly  based on an annual rate,  0.35% for the 2008  Trusts,  Insured
Municipal  and  Municipal  Target,  0.40% for the 2018  Trusts and 0.60% for the
Strategic Trusts, of the Trust's average weekly managed assets. "Managed assets"
means the total assets of the Trust  (including any assets  attributable  to any
preferred shares that may be outstanding)  minus the sum of accrued  liabilities
(other than debt representing  financial leverage).  The Advisor has voluntarily
agreed to waive a portion of the  investment  advisory fee or other  expenses on
the Strategic Trusts as a percentage of managed assets as follows: 0.25% for the
first five years of each of the Trust's operations,  0.20% in year six, 0.15% in
year seven, 0.10% in year eight and 0.05% in year nine.

   The administration fee paid to each Trust's respective  administrator,  other
than the 2018  Trusts and  Strategic  Trusts,  is  computed  weekly and  payable
monthly based on an annual rate,  0.10% to UBSGAM and Princeton and 0.07% to PI,
of the Trust's average weekly managed assets.

   On May 22,  2003,  the  Boards  of the 2008  Trusts,  Insured  Municipal  and
Municipal  Target approved the change of each Trust's current  administrator  to
the Advisor.  The new  administration  agreements become effective  September 1,
2003,  except for Insured  Municipal,  which becomes  effective August 15, 2003.
Each Trust's fee structure,  as described above, will remain unchanged under the
new administration agreements.

   Pursuant to the agreements,  the Advisor provides  continuous  supervision of
the investment portfolio and pays the compensation of officers of each Trust who
are  affiliated  persons of the Advisor.  The Advisor pays occupancy and certain
clerical and accounting costs for the 2018 Trusts and the Strategic Trusts. Each
Trust's  administrator  pays occupancy and certain clerical and accounting costs
of their  respective  Trust(s).  Each Trust bears all other costs and  expenses,
which  include  reimbursements  to the Advisor for certain  operational  support
services provided to each Trust.

   Pursuant to the terms of the custody  agreement,  each Trust received earning
credits from its custodian for positive cash balances maintained, which are used
to offset  custody fees.  For the six months ended June 30, 2003,  the following
earning credits were used to offset custody fees:

   A Trust may not  declare  dividends  or make  other  distributions  on common
shares  or  purchase  any  such  shares  if,  at the  time  of the  declaration,
distribution  or  purchase,  asset  coverage  with  respect  to the  outstanding
preferred shares would be less than 200%.

   The preferred  shares are redeemable at the option of each Trust, in whole or
in part, on any dividend  payment date at $25,000 per share plus any accumulated
or unpaid  dividends  whether or not  declared.  The  preferred  shares are also
subject to mandatory  redemption  at $25,000 per share plus any  accumulated  or
unpaid dividends,  whether or not declared,  if certain requirements relating to
the  composition of the assets and  liabilities of a Trust, as set forth in each
Trust's Declaration of Trust/Articles Supplementary are not satisfied.

   The holders of  preferred  shares have voting  rights equal to the holders of
common shares (one vote per share) and will vote together with holders of common
shares as a single  class.  However,  holders of preferred  shares,  voting as a
separate  class,  are also  entitled  to elect two  Directors/Trustees  for each
Trust.  In addition,  the Investment  Company Act of 1940, as amended,  requires
that along with approval by shareholders  that might otherwise be required,  the
approval  of the  holders of a majority  of any  outstanding  preferred  shares,
voting  separately  as a class  would  be  required  to (a)  adopt  any  plan of
reorganization  that would adversely affect the preferred  shares,  (b) change a
Trust's sub-  classification  as a closed-end  investment  company or change its
fundamental  investment  restrictions and (c) change its business so as to cease
to be an investment company.

NOTE 5.  DIVIDENDS

On May 22, 2003, the Boards of Municipal  Strategic and  Pennsylvania  Strategic
voted to change each Trust's monthly  distribution  per common share,  effective
with the  distribution  declared on July 1, 2003,  to $0.079585  and  $0.073965,
respectively.  Subsequent  to June 30,  2003,  the Board of each Trust  declared
dividends from  undistributed  earnings per common share payable August 1, 2003,
to  shareholders  of record on July 15,  2003.  The per share  common  dividends
declared were:

                           DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PLANS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   Pursuant to each Trust's  Dividend  Reinvestment  Plan (the  "Plan"),  common
shareholders  of the 2008 Trusts,  Insured  Municipal and  Municipal  Target may
elect to enroll,  while the common shareholders of the 2018 Trusts and Strategic
Trusts are  automatically  enrolled,  to have all distributions of dividends and
capital gains reinvested by EquiServe Trust Company,  N.A. (the "Plan Agent") in
the respective  Trust's shares pursuant to the Plan.  Shareholders who elect not
to participate in the Plan will receive all  distributions in cash paid by check
and mailed directly to the  shareholders of record (or if the shares are held in
street or other  nominee  name,  then to the  nominee) by the Plan Agent,  which
serves as agent for the shareholders in administering the Plan.

   After a 2008 Trust,  Insured  Municipal,  2018 Trust and/or  Municipal Target
declares a dividend or determines to make a capital gain distribution,  the Plan
Agent will  acquire  shares for the  participants'  account,  by the purchase of
outstanding  shares on the open  market,  on the  Trust's  primary  exchange  or
elsewhere ("open market purchases").  These Trusts will not issue any new shares
under the Plan.

   After a Strategic  Trust  declares a dividend or determines to make a capital
gain  distribution,  the Plan Agent will  acquire  shares for the  participants'
account,  depending upon the circumstances  described below,  either (i) through
receipt of unissued but authorized shares from the Trust ("newly issued shares")
or (ii) by open market  purchases.  If, on the dividend payment date, the NAV is
equal to or less  than the  market  price  per share  plus  estimated  brokerage
commissions (such condition being referred to herein as "market  premium"),  the
Plan Agent will invest the dividend  amount in newly issued  shares on behalf of
the  participants.  The number of newly  issued  shares to be  credited  to each
participant's  account will be  determined  by dividing the dollar amount of the
dividend  by the NAV on the date the shares are issued.  However,  if the NAV is
less than 95% of the market price on the payment date,  the dollar amount of the
dividend will be divided by 95% of the market price on the payment date.  If, on
the dividend  payment  date,  the NAV is greater than the market value per share
plus estimated brokerage commissions (such condition being referred to herein as
"market  discount"),  the Plan Agent will invest the  dividend  amount in shares
acquired on behalf of the participants in open market purchases.

   Participants  in the Plan may withdraw  from the Plan upon written  notice to
the Plan Agent and will receive  certificates  for whole Trust shares and a cash
payment for any fraction of a Trust share.

   The Plan Agent's fees for the handling of the  reinvestment  of dividends and
distributions will be paid by each Trust.  However,  each participant will pay a
pro rata  share of  brokerage  commissions  incurred  with  respect  to the Plan
Agent's open market  purchases in connection with the  reinvestment of dividends
and  distributions.  The automatic  reinvestment of dividends and  distributions
will not relieve  participants  of any Federal income tax that may be payable on
such dividends or distributions.

   Each Trust  reserves  the right to amend or terminate  the Plan.  There is no
direct service charge to participants in the Plan, however,  each Trust reserves
the  right  to  amend  the Plan to  include  a  service  charge  payable  by the
participants.  All correspondence  concerning the Plan should be directed to the
Plan Agent at 150 Royall Street, Canton, MA 02021, or by calling (800) 699-1BFM.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   We are required by the Internal  Revenue Code to advise you within 60 days of
a Trust's tax  year-end as to the  Federal tax status of  dividends  paid by the
Trusts during such tax year.  Accordingly,  during the tax  year-ended  June 30,
2003, all dividends paid by the Strategic Trusts (the only Trusts with June 30th
tax year-ends) were federally tax-exempt interest dividends.

The Trusts will mail only one copy of shareholder  documents,  including  annual
and semi-annual  reports and proxy  statements,  to  shareholders  with multiple
accounts at the same address.  This practice is commonly  called  "householding"
and  is  intended  to  reduce  expenses  and  eliminate  duplicate  mailings  of
shareholder documents. Mailings of your shareholder documents may be householded
indefinitely unless you instruct us otherwise. If you do not want the mailing of
these  documents to be combined with those for other members of your  household,
please contact the Trusts at (800) 227-7BFM.
