 Archery

 The Archery Committee held a GSB shoot January 14th.  Despite very icy conditions 121 shooters (15 of which were  kids) came to the club. Some of the shooters said they  enjoyed the challenge. Not all finished the course but most  of the people seemed to have a good time. Even with the bad  weather some of the shooters noticed the changes that are  being made to the archery area and appreciate the  improvements. We would like to thank the following people for their help setting up and at the shoo0t Sunday, Bill Lane, Norman Pinard, David Baker, Bill Griffith, Louis Lanseigne, and Bruce Achilles. We would like to give a special thanks to Fred Plante for trying to make the road more passable and Nick Wason who helped make bridges, cleared trails and built a fire pit. Dr. Bill thanks for your special work in the archery repair division. Bruce + Tammy Winchell
