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 Click Here

 
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!
