Time is passing so quickly

It seems as if we just started the classes for this year and we are already in the seventh week. We only have 16 classes for the year and we are almost half way there. It's great when your having so much fun. I hope everyone enjoys archery and the classes as I do.

As a reminder we will not have class Saturday, December 26th. We wish everyone a safe and happy Holiday.

I should mention if class is cancelled for weather related reasons, we will post this on the home page of this site but it is very difficult and time consuming to contact everyone individually.  If you would like to call me at home (636) 281-3149 to confirm classes have been cancelled, I will leave a message for you to hear about the classes for that day. 

Saturday, December 12th Nick Schilf (compound) completed the Level 7 and will be scoring for Level 8.
Amana Leonard (recurve) achieved the Level 7 (60cm target) and will now be scoring for Level 7 (40cm target). The upper Levels are hard to obtain with either a recurve or compound. Both of these youth have worked hard and the benefits are are being seen. Congratulations!!!
Many others are moving up to higher achievement levels and we are so proud of them, keep up the good work. We will hand out everyone's awards for this 2nd program on Saturday - January 2, 2010.

Please let me know if you will not be re-enrolling for the January classes, presently set for January 9th - January 30th, 2010. Registrations is in progress for these classes. Names can be seen for these classes on the Enrollments page.

Wishing everyone a safe and Happy Holidays,

For Your Information

We are planning to attend the MAA State Indoor Tournament held at Moberly, MO in February. This tournament is for youth owning their own equipment and are competing at the 20-yard distance. We have attended the past three years and are looking forward to this once again. There will be no class on the day of MAA  tournament and will be announced in class and in this newsletter once the day has been confirmed.

We want to thank our instructors 

Tom Traner, Kim Roscoe, Dave Hercules, Jonas Broad, Rich Schilf, Jeff Swoboda, Cathy Ball, Bob McGeorge, Josh Miguel, Matt Parris, Cecil Morris, Andrew Daub, Randy Leonard, Eliot Kahn and Craig Leimkuehler for becoming instructors in the classes. Amanda Leonard thank you for taking the time and training to become a Safety Monitor and we can't forget Julie McGeorge for helping with the paperwork for all classes.
(It never hurts to let them know how much you appreciate what they do for the program).

We would also like to thank the many parents that help with the classes, I'm afraid to miss names, so we will just say "Thanks to the parents for your help that is greatly appreciated and your continued support."

If you would like to be trained as an instructor for the classes please contact us. Training is offered at no charge and if the class your child is enrolled is all you could volunteer  that would be wonderful.

Archery Tip: Establish a sequence of correct techniques and improve on them and accuracy will follow.
