Field Shoot at the Archery Company
A number of club members visited The Archery Company at Potton, near
Sandy, Beds on Saturday 21 August 2010 for a Field Shoot arranged by
Dave Stagg. For some members, this was their first experience of a
Field Shoot. The course consisted of 20 targets, and the expected rain
held off so that everyone had an enjoyable day. Some people stayed for a
second round after lunch (and a visit to the shop!), and hopefully we
will look at arranging further similar events at this venue in the
future. Congratulations to Dave for achieving the highest score
for the morning scored round. Photos of the day are available as a link from the Photos
page, or simply

Annual Summer Barbecue
Ely Archers held their annual summer barbecue at the
lovely riverside setting of the Toll House, Prickwillow on Saturday 7
August 2010 courtesy of the club's Social Secretary Wendy Wilson and her
husband Mike. Over 20 club members, partners and their families
enjoyed the chance to meet fellow archers informally, have a chat and
consume some excellent food, and even the threatened rain held off.
Everyone is looking forward to next year's event already! Thanks
to Wendy and Mike for another very successful and enjoyable club event.

Roy's Robin Hood!

Club member Roy Lockwood had only just
re-fletched his arrows when he managed to shoot this Robin Hood at the
club's Wednesday evening shoot on 28 July. And they had looked so
nice....!
Participants on the club's latest beginners course,
starting on the same evening, were very impressed!
Well done Roy!
