This basic archery session provides instruction to those new to archery and shooting time to those already familiar with bows. All equipment is provided, although our equipment is not suitable for youth under eight years of age. Only ten slots are available.

Advance registration is required at least 48 hours before the event through Eventbrite HERE. The fee per person is $5 plus a small processing fee. Within 24 hours of the event, any remaining slots will be available through in-person registration at the park office.
