Archery update
I have received multiple e-mails requesting beginners archery training classes from club members and non members. I am in the process of procuring equipment to meet this demand, however for club members; I can currently address archery training on a two or three participant basis. A beginner’s archery course is being planned for May.
It will be announced on the website once the date is finalized.
Four new bag targets (for the range) are now on order and will be delivered shortly.
As previously announced, we are ordering several traditional recurve bows (in various weights) to add to the clubs inventory of Genesis (compound style bows).
They should arrive during the month of May and will be announced on the website as well.
There was a club work party on Saturday, April 20th and I would like to thank everyone that came out to help at the club and on the archery ranges specifically.
Work party crew consisted of the Lampes Family, Gena Tsakiris, Maureen Campiola, Jerry Rybicki, Bill Mowatt, Jimmy Lumbard, and Matt Lumb (Tom’s son).
Please join us. I welcome comments, suggestions, and participation that will help grow ASC archery. You can find me at the archery range, or e-mail me at felsberg@verizon.net. Thank you.

GSB Delegates needed
We need two volunteers to attend the Granite State Bowhunters meetings in NH. If anyone is interested, see Bob Felsberg.
Again, we would like you members to participate in your club and we would appreciate some input from you. Those of you who would like to join the Andover Sportsmen's Club, applications are available anytime at the club.
If you would like to join Granite State Bowhunters, applications are available only at the archery 3-D shoots.
Archers --- The 15 butts that were on the course are going to be moved to the shooting animals on the 3-D course. Remember to follow the arrows and orange tape. Any questions see Bob or one of the maintenance crew.
To you archers, of which I know there is over one hundred, come to the club to see and enjoy the course. We now have 3-D targets as well as butts on the course for you to practice with.
Come to the club on Sunday mornings, enjoy a good breakfast and rekindle old friendships. Breakfast is only $4.00 and a wonderful meal it is.
We are looking for more ideas and input.
Come on down. This is your club and range, so come and enjoy it.
Remember
Stay straight as the arrow
