Folks, please forgive the long winded post here, but I'd like to talk about the clubs that put these types of events on. They deserve credit by doing their very best to accommodate our traditional archery family that make the trip to enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Planning and a lot of thought are put forth to make sure everyone has a great time. Many use their vacation time to do this and many of these don't even get to play during their own event, to make sure these event keep running smooth throughout the weekend.
Now, with that being said, the Howard Hill Classic isn't put on by a club. I started this event over 16 years ago and there is NO WAY I could have ever done this alone. Folks, at most I've had 5 to 7 good, excuse me, GREAT friends, that have helped me over the years.
We'll get the targets out in a day, then, there's the little extras. Trail flagging, numbering the targets, hangin banners, etc.
THEN, after a weekend of working the event, EVERYTHING must be taken down on Sunday afternoon and put in a trailer to wait until next year, because after all, we're able to put the Howard Hill Classic on at a beautiful Park and aren't able to leave all we've put out.
SO, this post is to say THANK YOU, to those have have been with me, year in and year out.
Thank you Scott & your wife Val, Gary, Mike, Johnny, Alen and others these guys recruit sometimes to lend a hand.
Last, but certainly not least, is my wife Rhonda. Without her SUPPORT and running the registration table ALL WEEKEND LONG, coordinating score cards, registrations , entering everything in the computer and all else going on, there would be NO HH Classic.
Again, Thank You, to those never tiring club members and to my wife and friends for providing what's needed for all of our archery family to enjoy.
