The weather was warm and the arrows were flying freely at the Annual Introduction to Archery Event at Twin Cities Rod and Gun Club. Northeastern Wisconsin Outdoors members once again helped out with this fun archery event. NASP instructors were on hand to provide guidance to the novice archers, while those with more experience could practice to sharpen their skills. Everyone enjoyed a day of shooting, food, friends, prizes and fun.

A damp morning didn’t prevent a great turnout for the annual Intro to Archery event put on by the Twin Cities Rod & Gun Club. NEW Outdoors members helped out at this event. Organized by Andy Ogilive, President of the Twin Cities Rod & Gun Club and a board member of Northeast Wisconsin Outdoors, the event focused on exposing youth and beginner adults to archery. Over 56 youngsters participated along with many of their adult companions.
National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) instructors were available for instruction and participants were able to get hands-on experience shooting a variety of targets using a range of equipment from compound bows, to recurves, and even long bows.
Every child participant came away with a prize. Several bows were given away, along with arrows, sites, releases, binoculars, gift certificates and many other fun gifts.
Sponsors included: Old 45 Archery, Gander Mountain, Best Beverage, Scheels, Fleet Farm, Thrivent Financial, and the Tom School, Jr. Memorial Fund.
