Report on the
Fun Shoot July 31, 1999
On Saturday,
July 31, 1999, we held a "3D Fun Shoot" for the JOP members and parents
who wished to participate. As we only thought up the idea for a 3D Fun
Shoot 2 weeks prior to July 31st, we weren't certain we could
pull it all together. But after a whirlwind brainstorming session while
sitting on the FITA field, we had details worked out, a menu planned,
shopping schedule --- we worked as a "true team"! Thanks to Cliff Allan,
Daryl Barter, Alice McCrea, Dave Ireland, and Lorrie Sommerville ó for
organizing a super fun-filled event. Cliff made arrangements with John
Clark for the use of the 3D animals, and for assistance from the Bowhunters
to guide the JOP archers through the course. Thanks to Kelly McKeown and
Mike Hughes for their help. Alice and Lorrie went shopping for the groceries.
(If you ever need to stay "under budget", take Alice shopping with you.
For a young woman she has the knack of finding the "deals" and staying
on track no unnecessary purchases!!) Thanks to Dave Ireland ó our Head
Hamburger Cooker, and Sylvia Torres-Bonet for all their help with the
food preparation and clean-up. Thanks to Vincent Van Schaik for volunteering
to give Dave a break at the BBQ! A special thank-you to our JOP parents
who donated chips, cheezies, dessert items, etc. All of the food was devoured
by the hungry hordes.
We had approximately
34 archers come out to participate in our shoot. Everyone seemed to enjoy
the event and have asked us to do it again next year. Who knows. Maybe
we'll attempt a larger JOP Outdoor Fun Shoot and include Up-Island and
Mainland clubs. We'll keep you posted!!!
