General Information
Who can join?  Youth, ages 8 and in third grade, through Senior in High School may participate in 4H shooting sports.  Parents or other interested adults may join in an adult leader or assistant capacity, as long as they are a minimum of 21 years old.
 
The Flaming Arrows 4-H club will be starting up for another year and taking new members on September 26, 2011.  Project meetings are once a week starting October 10th – 13th to May 21st - 24th (see Calendar on web site for complete schedule including holidays), where archery shooting skills and safety are taught.  In addition, the club will meet on some Saturdays for club meetings and activities, see Calendar.  Members will sign up for one of the nights.  You will need to stay with that schedule through the year, unless you make prior arrangements.  We encourage all archers to attend weekly.  As we tend to fill our archery ranges, we request that you let the Range Master know when you will not be there.
All correspondence is done through the web page and some through the email.
In an emergency, e-mail or phone calls will be made.  Please keep us up to date on e-mail addresses and phone numbers.  We have had to cancel due to weather or power outages, and have had difficulty in the past reaching everyone.  We are sorry if you show up and archery is canceled.
Information for all:  This year (2011) club fees will be $25.00 plus County Fee $20.00 at the start of the 4-H year. Total of $45.00.   Break down of fees paid is: targets for the club ($5), insurance ($1), County Fees ($19), and archery supplies such as target butts, arrows, armguards, Tournaments etc for the club ($15), Club Leaders ($5), so your leaders can bring you the best program possible.    If you are not familiar with 4-H please call the 4-H office at 337-7157, or visit http://kitsap.wsu.edu/index.htm
If you have more than 3 youth signing up in your family, the County Fees and insurance will remain at $60, with no additional charge per youth.   County fee only needs to be paid once in any project, so if you are in Cats, Dogs and Archery you only pay once.  The club fees will remain at $25 per youth. 
The club fees do not include the cost of making arrows or other projects.  Those will be charged separately as needed.  With the cost of the projects and the club fees, we anticipate the total cost to be about $2 to $3 per week of archery instruction.
We will be filling out 4-H club paperwork and collecting fees during first club meeting October 22nd Saturday, time 5:00 pm location Eagles Nest Fairgrounds.  Bring a parent.
The youth will also elect club officers at the first club meeting.  A separate e-mail will be sent out covering these elected positions.
All project meetings are at the Kitsap County Fair grounds in the Archery barn (Cold in the winter but dry).  Saturday meeting locations will be announced later.
All projects (including arrows) will be on a pay as you make them basis.  We will not collect at the beginning of the year, because the price is not known until supplies are purchased.
The club has some bows and arrows that you can use.  We recommend that you use the club's bows and equipment for awhile.  If you have a bow that you want to use, bring it and have it inspected for safety.  The club leader (Kim Petersen) can assist in properly sizing and purchasing a bow if the youth is interested.  The bows take about 1 to 1-1/2 months to arrive.
Make checks to Flaming Arrows 4-H Club.
 
Youth will fall in one of the three age groups
Juniors 3rd-5th grade
Intermediates 6th-8th grade
Seniors 9th-12th grade

Meeting Time 2nd and 4th Saturday of the month 12:00- 2:00 Shotgun and 2:00-4:00 pm Rifle
General Information
John Jensen is the leader.  Requires NRA class to shoot.  He is the NRA instructor for the Range.
We have been shooting every 2nd and 4th Saturday.  
What we are going to do this year is have the youth join 4-H.  We then have the kids pay $2.00 each Saturday they come and shoot.  That pay's the club for targets and ammunition. I would like you to take the NRA Basic Rifle course that I teach.  I'm not going to require it because I've not scheduled a class and probably won't until January. When we do the class it will cost $10.00 and you will receive a certificate of completion for the course.  It will help the youth and assure me that everyone on the range knows the same basic safety principles and techniques for shooting a rifle.

I will also be teaching Shotgun and if you are interested in that as well let me know.  The cost is a little more in that the kids will have to pay for the clay targets that we use and the shotgun shells.

Hope this information helps.  I'll let you know as soon as possible when and what time we are shooting in November.

I hope you enjoy this sport.

John
