Outdoor Club Activities

Posted in Club Info, Club Members

Spring has finally arrived and its time to begin shooting outdoors.  The club is operating on the normal outdoor practice schedule, more information can be found at this link Schedule.

The outdoor practice schedule is made possible by Peewee and the range captains.  All of the range captains volunteer their time to open the club for the members, if you would like information on becoming a range captain speak with Peewee on Friday or Saturday.

Big thanks to Keith and the Tournament Committee for running our great outdoor tournaments.  These events attract archers from surrounding states so we must be doing something right.

We are always looking for volunteers to help with field setup and club activities.  Speak with  any board member if you would like help out.

The club also offers scholarship opportunities for high school students, a major component to earn a scholarship is volunteering within the club.

 

Have a great summer.

Range Captains

I wanted to say THANK YOU!! to all of the Cedar Creek range captains.

With your support, Nassau Bowmen continues to be a great benefit to the archers of Long Island.

 

A few things about this dedicated group.

The Cedar Creek range captains volunteer their free time to open the club for all the members.

The range captains became Lvl-II coaches to ensure the range is operate in a safe manner.

PeeWee who is in charge of the range captains works with them to ensure our publicized schedule has coverage.

Weekend range captains also help new shooters on their first time trying archery.

Thank a range captain the next time you are on the range.

Talk with PeeWee or Myself for information about becoming range captain or volunteering with the club

 

Thank You

Joe McGlyn

President
