Work Party – 8 February 2015

 

February Volunteer Work Party This Sunday!

When:  This Sunday, February 8th, 8am-noon.

Where:  Morley Field Archery Range.

Bring:  Sturdy shoes, long sleeves and pants, work gloves, water.

Work Focus:  Final alignment (we hope) of the right field at Morley.

NOTE:  Additional help is needed on Saturday morning at Morley to finish four more target bases.  If you can’t make it on Sunday, please join us at 8am on Saturday. 

Volunteer Work Parties Are Back! 

The San Diego Archers are bringing back regularly scheduled Volunteer Work Parties to help maintain both of our great archery ranges in Balboa Park.  You do not need to be a member to participate in these events, just have the desire to give something back to the ranges that allow us all to enjoy the sport of archery in such a beautiful setting.  

The goal is to have a different Volunteer host a Volunteer Work Party each month.  If there is an area that you would like to focus on, please let us know.  We will round up volunteers to help you with whatever area you want to work on (e.g., rebuilding stairs on hillsides, or shooting platforms and footbridge near Target 23, benches and tables at Morley Field, etc.). 

Volunteer Work Parties will be held on the 2nd weekend of each month: on Saturdays in the odd months, on Sundays in the even months.  Dates will soon be posted on the SDA calendar on the website and announcements emailed to all members, and to non-members who have requested to be on our mailing list.  

Next Volunteer Work Party:  Saturday, March 14, 2015 

If you want to join us, just show up at the scheduled time and place.  If you need more information, please contact us at: sandiegoarchers@yahoo.com

Thank you,

San Diego Archers

THE FLYING PIG 3D SHOOT

~Range Finder Allowed~

If you know anything about the local flora and fauna of the Balboa Park area of San Diego you will be aware of not only the existence but also the migratory patterns of the Pink Lesser Spotted Rhinehart Flying Pig.

For those of you who are less familiar with this legendary exodus, all indications point to the migration beginning on Sunday, February 1st, 2015, starting at 9.15am and lasting until around noon. During this time we anticipate that each person will get at least one chance to shoot at this unusual creature during its majestic flight across the Balboa Park skies. (plus 27 other targets)

So, get out your bows and start practicing. Registration for this range finder-approved novelty 3D event starts at 7:30 am.

This is a 1 arrow,  novelty 3D shoot.  You’ll find the Pink Lesser Spotted Rhinehart Flying Pin\g and a wide range of high quality Rhinehart and Mackenzie targets set at unmarked yardages in various hunting scenarios.

Entry fee $15 per person, $10 for members

Note: As with all 3D shoots – We will shoot come Rain or Shine.

Please arrive at the Balboa Park Archery Range with plenty of time to register.

Shooting starts at 9:00am.
