Hello Archers!
The weather is warming up and so is the calendar at Central Texas Archery! We have tons of new activities happening this spring and we want to share them all with YOU.
First,
Daylight Savings Time means more sunlight in the evening. As a result,
Central Texas Archery will be open later with more classes on the
weekends and new classes during the week.
Second,
we have seen many of you begin to fall in love with archery which means
we have lots of new members! Welcome to our archery family. We are
going to be hosting a free member “Shoot and a Show” night in April.
This is a great way to meet other archers and have a fun night out. It’s
our way to say thanks and welcome to the family! There will also be a
weekly League open to our members starting in March.
Also,
we are hosting our 2nd Annual Texas Twister Team Tournament. This is a
weekend of shooting fun and a great introduction to archery competition.
It is open to anyone who can shoot 18 meters.
