(From left to right) Chris Crum, Mike Hayes, Ted McKinney, Manny Montoya and Polly Montoya all completed the Basic Archery Instructor course on May 30, 2009.
It was taught by Charles Larue in Clendenin, WV. The course will enable these individuals to teach International Target Style Archery through the fundamentals put together by National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP) www.archeryintheschools.org .
It is the goal of Colonial Outdoors to combine this training with the gospel message through the Centershot Ministries program www.centershotministries.org . The archery class can be available to people of all ages, gender, and abilities by using a bow (Matthews Genesis) that is not draw length specific. The class can connect children to the church, strengthen a relat
ionship between child and parent, reach children for Christ, and even allow people with different levels of abilities to compete against others.“I am excited about the possibilities that will be available at Colonial”, said Manny Montoya. “I know God has laid it on my heart to start this program at Colonial”, stated Chris Crum. The bows have already been purchased and the program is in need of about $1,500 more dollars for equipment to get started.
