Indoor shoots are back and in full swing
Our indoor shoots at Saanich Commonwealth are back, busy, and we have confirmed our indoor dates until June 2023: every Sunday (JOP 1-2pm and Club 2-4pm) and Thursday 7:40 – 9:40pm EXCEPT February 5 and April 9. Please remember to sign in and wear your membership card in plain sight. We look forward to seeing you!
JOP continues to grow!
Our young archers’ enthusiasm and participation is an inspiration to us all – we now have 22 youngsters out on Sundays for our Junior Olympic Program, and everyone in JOP is working towards their next level. No room for adults at the end of the line! And six of our young archers have reached the required level to participate in the JOP mail match this winter, with October scores already sent in – good luck to all.
Canadian Championships Aug 2023
We will be hosting the Canadian Outdoor Target Championships in August 2023. This is a big event, and we’ll need lots of volunteers. Please let us know if you have any experience that may be of use to the committee and if you can assist during the week of August 8-13 next year. Even if you don’t have any experience, we’ll just need help – please chip in!
