Time for some 3D fun! We’re having a fun shoot on August 12th at 6:00 p.m., south of Lot A at The Ranch.
Members and their families are invited to try out their archery skills in a friendly 3D competition. (Participants must be 4-H age or older. No Cloverbuds.) Adults and members who are not enrolled in Shooting Sports will need to complete a waiver. Signup is required to participate and will close at 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, August 11th.

Here’s how it will work!
Age Divisions:
• Junior Members
• Senior Members
• Adults
Classes within each Age Division:
• Sights
• No Sights
Juniors will shoot 2 arrows at 5 targets placed at distances up to 30 yards.
Seniors and Adults will shoot 1 arrow at 10 targets placed at distances up to 50 yards.
We MAY have a fun bonus target as well!
We’ll have awards and ice cream when we’re finished shooting!
We are looking forward to seeing you at 2021 Interview Judging Day next Tuesday, August 3rd!
This year there will be some changes to the check-in process, so we greatly appreciate your patience and understanding. In the spirit of 4-H, we are again learning by doing and seeking to make the best better!
Please read the following carefully. This will help the day flow more smoothly.
On arrival, all members should enter the Exhibit Hall in the McKee Building at The Ranch. Signs will indicate where you check-in, based on the first letter of your last name. (Shooting sports also needs to go to the Exhibit Hall for check-in this year.) At the check-in table, you will receive a manila envelope with pink cards in it. You will receive two matching pink cards for each of your exhibits.
Please keep your cards in the envelope until you are called for an interview, to prevent them from being lost or damaged. When you are called for an interview, present the two matching cards for the correct class to the volunteer. They will assist you in attaching the pink cards to your Record Book and Exhibit.
You will then complete your interview as usual. We appreciate you taking care to not lose your cards during this process.
Lastly, please remember that you must pick up your projects on August 11th between 7:00–10:00 a.m. Please plan accordingly.
We look forward to seeing you soon! Good luck with your final touches!
Best,
Cindy Buckardt
