Congratulations to Shane Bryson, Garnett Last and Shawn Matheson who earned the bronze 50+ recurve team medal at the 2025 Multi-site Indoor Championship of the Americas event.
This event runs throughout the whole calendar year from Canada to Argentina. And, finally, we were able to present these medals today, 14 months after they shot the event.
You can view the group photo on our banner. Well done, gentlemen!
All beginner, intermediate and advanced group lessons will be posted on our website for the upcoming instructional season for youth and adults some time in mid-October.
Use the Classes drop-down menu for details including pre-registration and fees.
Kathleen looks forward to working with all students.
Now that group lessons are finished for another season, SNAC’s outdoor lanes are OPEN for use in 2026.
In order to use our outdoor facilities, participants must have either taken lessons at South Nation Archery, or can demonstrate knowledge and application of all safety rules prior to accessing the facility.
Provisions:
1. Permission is needed before you are allowed to start shooting.
2. Lanes are available only during business hours.
3. All participants must prove in-force personal liability coverage before shooting.
4. NO ONE is to venture off the outdoor target range into the woods or off the SNAC property. Anyone doing so will be asked to leave the facility immediately.
5. Normal archery-specific safety rules are in effect; anyone violating these standard safety rules (personal/group/equipment) will be asked to leave the facility.
User fee: $10/person
Kathleen Millar will join other national judges to volunteer at Archery Canada’s national 3D/field/target championships in Muskoka, ON during the first weeks of August. For more details about the event, please use the Archery Canada website link to the host committee’s site.
For those of you who have pre-registered already, be prepared for all 4-letter words for weather conditions: heat, rain and wind, plus humidity which probably will be in great supply for all 3 championships.
Some SNAC archers will be competing during the week and we wish all of them good shooting.
We had 3 people shoot flames out correctly this year. Congratulations to all the Advanced Class members who tried to split the wick. We had dozens of arrows go straight through the flames, but never put out the flame without touching the candle.
Our 3 top archers were: Leona Crabb (recurve), Mike Wood (compound), Robert Hoger (compound) and Frank Hallett (compound).
This event is held only one time each year, in the advanced class, under maximum safety conditions.
