Archery<br />
Sessions 3, 5, and 6 for campers entering<br />
5th-8th Grade<br />
This program will teach campers using a combination <strong>of</strong> time<br />
proven techniques, positive reinforcement, and feedback to<br />
kindle a lifetime <strong>of</strong> enthusiasm for the sport <strong>of</strong> Archery. Whether<br />
you are new to the sport or an experienced Archer with your own<br />
bow, this week-long camp taught by USA Archery trained staff<br />
will challenge you to new levels. In addition to daily shooting<br />
practice, instructors will cover advanced topics such as range<br />
safety, equipment operation, maintenance, and repair. Archers<br />
will also delve into more advanced shooting opportunities such<br />
as field Archery and moving targets. The week will culminate in<br />
the Camp Archery Tournament, where students can demonstrate<br />
their skills in a supportive, friendly competition. In addition,<br />
participants will enjoy a daily swim period as well as other<br />
traditional camp activities.<br />
