Cost for the beginner archery course is $65 per student.  Equipment is available for students who don’t have their own bow and arrows.

Drop-In Archery Education Program

For anyone who would like to try shooting a bow we have a free introduction to archery class held every Thursday from 6:00pm to 7:45pm. If you are new to archery or have an interest in taking the sport back up, you are welcome to come (First Come First Served) between 6:00 and 6:15 and we will set you up with all the archery equipment you will need for free on your first visit. On your first visit you will be introduced to basic archery form and safety. After your first visit you may come back for a fee of $5.00 which includes equipment and shooting time where you can shoot and learn in an open instruction format. We do ask that any new students be 7 years or older because of the motor skills required in order to shoot safely. We emphasis four things in our classes that that is Safety, Safety, Safety and Fun. If you have any questions please contact Steven Coleman at steven.m.coleman@us.army.mil or reach him by phone at 253-576-2989. We look forward to seeing you in class.
