Looking back at the Weekend

Our third and last event for the time being was again a resounding success. With the help from a great team the day ended with around 20 would be archers enjoying a half hour taster session and many more just having a go.

This event was split between two locations, during the morning at Mosborough Miners Welfare then transferring to the old Westfield School Fields. This proved to be very tiring logistically but with help from members Alan, Alison, Audrey, and Steve (hopefully new member) with partner Lynn and of course the fearless four (the committee) the day went well.

Many who attended showed interest in the club and we're hoping they will enrol on beginners courses soon. As the nights close in beginners course will be held at weekends so budding archers can train throughout the year. Many attending the event lived locally but we enjoyed the company of a lovely Mum and Son from Australia, visiting a relative in killamarsh and we are honoured that they chose to spend some of their holiday with us enjoying shooting arrows and having a bit of a competition between themselves.

Norton Show 2011

This was the first time Aardwolf Archers had attended the Norton Show. This is an annual event and this year was the 108th show. The showground was a hive of activity with horticultural exhibitions, environmental groups, all sorts of animal and craft attractions, an equestrion event and much much more.

The weater was good and the sun shone in the afternoon. Everyone seemed to be having a good time and our archers were busy all day supervising in excess of 100 people of all ages sampling our sport.

We thank Norton Ploughing Association for all their hard work in organising a superb show, all the budding archers for visiting us and having a go and to our team for giving their time to promote our club.

What a Success

Today we held our first event as a new club. The Have a go and Taster sessions day was a great success.
Our first visitors arrived as soon as we were set up at 10.00am and we extended our finishing time by nearly an hour due to the numbers showing interest.

The weather was kind with only a slight shower and judging from the response from our visitors, all enjoyed their experience and we hope we have encouraged them to take up the sport.

We owe our sincere thanks to our Archer friends and family who rallied to help and the good news is they are joining The club.
