Easter Egg Archery Hunt and other Spring Archery Activities

Do you have spring fever? And archery fever? Time to go shoot some things for fun...

  7. Spring Archery Challenge Course: Design an archery challenge course with different obstacles and shooting stations themed around springtime elements such as blooming flowers, hopping rabbits, or chirping birds. Participants navigate the course and shoot at targets along the way, testing their accuracy and agility.

  8. Springtime Archery Games: Play fun archery games with springtime themes such as "Blossom Blast" where participants aim to hit flower-shaped targets, or "Spring Fling" where players compete to shoot at moving targets representing springtime animals.

Archery Lessons Availability for March-April 2024

Due to other obligations during March and April 2024 I will only be available to teach archery on weekends, up until April 23rd. No weekday time slots are available during that time period.

Starting on Wednesday April 24th I will once again be able to teach on weekdays, at least until September.

If you're planning to book archery lessons this year for yourself or a loved one I recommend doing it sooner rather than later so you can claim the best time slots. I have a hunch this summer will be very busy (hotter summers tends to be busier).
