Found a youth program in need of help. 4-H Firing Fanatics
« on: August 11, 2009, 09:57:00 AM »
I have 6 complete set-ups that need to be put to use. The fine folks at Comptons sent me 6 of these    http://www.3riversarchery.com/Youth+Archery+Bows++Titan+Recurve+Bow_c16_s94_p0_i2375_product.html  
with arrows, quivers, armguards and tabs to find a home for. This is a test run so if you put in for these you need to agree to these terms.

1) You will provide pictures of your group using the equipment ASAP, posted here and e-mailed to an address I will PM the winner.

2) The kids will write a thank-you letter to Comptons and let them know they recieved the equipment through here. (I will provide a name and address)

3) The equipment is to be given away here if for any reason the your program ends.

The age group needs to be between 10-18 years old.

To enter post here and tell us about your group and need.

  Please if you can not abide by these conditions, do not enter.

I am the leader of a new 4-H Shooting Sports Club in Cumberland, MD, the 4-H Firing Fanatics. I am trying to start a youth archery program as part of our new club. I have kids registered to start archery classes, but we need equipment. Our club has made arrangements with the Cumberland Bowhunters Club to use their indoor and outdoor facilities for our archery program. They have had many youth express interest in archery, but the club doesn't have any of its own equipment for youth either, and they have not been able to capitalize on all the interest (100 kids turned up at their last kids day where youth could try archery out). Once our 4-H club has its own equipment, we can introduce archery to youth in the tri-state area. We can also put together an archery team to compete. Please visit our web site at  www.4HShootingSports.com  and take a look at our archery page. We would be happy to post pictures and information on this equipment gift (should we be lucky enough to be awarded it), as well as posting here. Thanks so much for the generous offer.

With such a generous offer, I must submit my Boy Scout unit....Troop 84 in Arthurdale, West Virginia.  The boys could do their archery merit badge without having to wait until summer camp, and with new boys always coming in, the equipment would eventually service hundreds of kids!!

I take my hat off, Sir, thank you so much!!!
