Suggestion of a get together of the Archery buffs. I know a club in the Harrisburg, PA area called Hemlock Archers. Plenty of grounds and has an excellent 3D shoot. There is an up-coming IBO Qualifier on May 5-6, 2007. Open to suggestions of any other clubs or dates and times. If there is anyone interested? It would be nice to meet each other than names on the site.

Like I said it's just a suggestion. Motorcycle clubs and other organizations are even stronger nationwide because of their unity. Of what I've notice on this site. A lot of people are interested hunters and anglers and archers. We might as well be as strong as the rest out there. Hemlock is centrally located. I'm willing to go anywhere in PA.

It would be nice if we have the biggest BBQ in the south central PA area. If we play are cards right I can possibly get us some news coverage. But it's up to us to push the issue of archery and 3D. Maybe this type of exposure will show another side of the sport.

I can't do May 5, as it is the day of my sister's fiance's bachelor party, but I really like the idea. BBQ is always a great idea!!! I would be willing to help out in any possible way with some sort of get together...

I would like to get more input on this idea from other members. Can't do it by myself. If it's the location, that can be changed to suit the majority.

Williethewelder if there was a signup sheet for all members when they first log in would at least get there attention. Just a yes or no and suggestion of location.

Well, I gave it a shot. Doen't look like anyone's interested. It would have been nice to have a get together. Maybe down the road we can find a spot that has a lake for the fishermen and a club that has a 3D set up. Then no one will feel they are being left out. Can you imagine if several hundred people invade a club and the time we'd have. We'll see!

That weekend is out for me...gonna be up in Susquehanna Co looking for turkeys. It's a great idea, though. Maybe when we plan to attend a large event, we should start a "who's going" thread so we know who to look for, and plans can evolve from there.

I've been trying but it seems as though there aren't any takers. There's a big shoot coming up at Camp Mack. 7 courses will be set up with food, venders etc will be there. Couldn't ask for a bigger event than that.
