I sure would like to see that Tim.  The hope with these satellite shoots.is to eventually have them scattered throughout the country so that a Compton event can be within an easy drive of just about everyone.  

The key is to find local partners with the manpower and a facility to host an event.  We have developed an application form and process for groups that might be interested in a Compton satellite shoot.

I hope so John, with great folks like you helping to spread the word, I don't see why it can't be.

I am excited to see growth.  This will allow more archers to attend shoots, they would not otherwise be able to do, and be a part of the traditional experience.
Congratulations on the decision, and kudo for all the planning and hard work to make this happen.
Archery is a family sport, enjoy it with your family.

Ken, Get in touch with Terry Harris for vendor info if you haven't already.

L.R. - plenty of lodging very close to the park (and of course camping right on site)

Take a look at this thread in the Trad Events forum for a list of motels very close by along with phone numbers.

John, you'll be blown away with these great people I met while at the Compton Rendezvous.

You will also see why I joined the Compton Traditional Bowmen while I was there.
