Independence Day Traditional Archery Shoot and Celebration
July 2nd, 2016 (Saturday)
524 Shamrock Lane
Dawsonville, Ga 30534
Hosted by Jerry Russell and Al Chapman
Please join us for some fun times and great food as we celebrate our Nation's independence at Jerry Russell's beautiful mountain estate. It will be a traditional archery event but so much more than that. There will be fishing, kayaking/canoeing, horseshoes, fireworks, prizes for the kids and maybe even a few for the adults. Primitive style camping spots available if you wish to spend the night either Friday on the eve of the 2nd or Saturday night of the 2nd or both. Pot luck lunch and supper so please bring a dish you wish to share.
**We will have a safe kids archery range set up close to the central activities so parents can observe. Also some novelty shots which will be a lot of fun.
**If you wish to fish please bring your own tackle and bait. Bass and big bream are in abundance in the lake.
**If kayaking or canoeing bring like jackets for your kids because they will not be allowed on the lake without them. There are three kayaks available but you may want to bring your own.
**Giant slip&slide right into the lake. Guaranteed to be great fun for kids of all ages so bring your swim suits.
This event is an alcohol free event, and no, that doesn't mean alcohol will be free.
Needs and items to consider bringing: chairs for yourself and family or guests / fireworks / food dishes / toys to donate for kids raffle m(new or used) / extra bows and arrows to loan out for the day / any stuffed animals your kids no longer need or want that we can use on the kids range as targets.
We will have Port-a-Potties available on sight and designated parking areas. Additionally we will keep an area clear next to the house for drop offs of anything you do not want to have to carry from the parking area.
Because we are uncertain at this point about how many will be attending we ask that you RSVP listing the total number you expect to be in your party and also the type of dish you plan on bringing for the pot luck eats. If our expectations are correct about the attendance numbers certainly more than a few of the same dish will be needed so do not be concerned about bringing something already listed. Pot luck dinners always turn out good.
