Happy November! With the beautiful fall weather we’ve been having it’s been wonderful for shooting!
Our Pumpkin Demise Festival was a ton of fun!!! Pictures will be posted on the website, www.martialarchery.com so keep checking back!
Christmas is coming and you may want to get your archer some new equipment. The Archery Pro Shop is now open!!! Visit the shop to see what perfect gift you can pick up for your archer. Prices and items will also be listed on the website.
Mr. Johnson will be out of town from November 18th through the 22nd. All lessons will be rescheduled. Visit with Mr. Johnson to reschedule.
As the Thanksgiving season falls upon us we are planning a “Turkey Shoot!” (No, we won’t be shooting live turkeys.) Mr. Johnson will provide one target. If you want to construct a target please do! It is advisable to check with Mr. Johnson as to appropriate target materials so we don’t harm our arrows. We will be holding the Turkey Shoot on Saturday Nov. 27th from 2 to 4pm.
In order to truly enjoy the season we will also be having a Pumpkin Pie Contest!!!! Bring your favorite Pumpkin Pie and we’ll put Mr. Johnson and the parents to a taste test. The winner will take home the accolades of having made the best pumpkin pie. ******Remember we do have a peanut allergy so please bring the labels from items used to make your recipe. You can contact Mr. Johnson with questions.*******
