Thank you, Tim! Ed's Archery has upgraded all of their targets since the video was made. The 3D will take place rain or shine for all archers.

Many of our sponsors will have shooting trailers and their new bows for you to try.

Mike Avery will emcee the auction and events at the spaghetti dinner. There will be bucket auctions, 50/50's, and door prizes.

When I get a minute I will post details on the website and update it as needed.

Funny you should mention that. At the meeting last night I was asked if our Canadian friends were going to attend. I told them I can only hope so. (a couple of our board members are active on these forums)

For you Southern Ontario folks it looks like about a 3 1/2 - 4 hour drive from the Kitchener/Waterloo/Cambridge area. It's a pretty direct route. Also it's on our May 2-4 weekend so Monday will be a holiday for most people in Ontario. The shoot is on Sunday. If all works as planned we'll likely travel there on Saturday and come home Monday. Motels look pretty cheap in that area. A quick check shows anywhere from $50-$75 per night.

I plan to be there if I am close enough. Think I will be under a 1/2 hour from there in a Bowfishing derby.

Actually, Wheelie, it is about a 1 1/2 hour drive from Caseville to Clio but the Caseville thing is on Saturday and our event is on Sunday. I was hoping you could make it.

What sizes of bowfishing t-shirts you want for door prizes ? Size Large? I will mail them to you when they get here so you have them.
