Saturday’s programs include a multi-level archery program from 3 – 6 p.m. One section will focus on Native American archery, which is a much different style of archery than the European style. Challenging targets will be set up for people who have some experience. The other section is for people who have never shot a bow before. Certified instructors will be at each section. You may bring your own equipment or borrow ours. Informational tables will also be set up. This will be at the archery range, 2.3 miles north of the park office, along Route 4001.
