Papago Park Practice a HIt
May 3, 2003 Practice and JOAD lessons at Papago
Park began with great success on this Saturday. The first outing included two beginner
JOADs, two advanced JOADs and three seniors.
The beginners used “house” bows to shot at a 5-meter bale to get their
technique down. The advanced and
seniors shot adult distance. This is
just the kind of mix that the Papago Archers were hoping for. All archers are encouraged to join in,
learn, train and have some fun. It is
interesting to note that five of the seven participants were female. The Papago Archers extends a special
invitation to those that have been shooting at an indoor JOAD program and are
looking try outdoor shooting. The Papago program is a not for profit
effort. A $5 dollar donation is
suggested to help pay for supplies and equipment wear and tear. The Papago Archers is a senior
training and JOAD program administered by AZJOAD. Check the web site often for schedule updates. Also, SchoolCraft Inc. of Arizona http://www.schoolcraftinc.com
recently provided a storage locker for securing AZJOAD supplies in the Papago
Park Storage unit. Please join AZJOAD
in thanking them for their generous donation. Return to Top Return to
