The Lee Kay Hunter Education Center has offered a great outdoor archery range for years, but recently began construction on an impressive improvement to the facility.  Still under construction, the new range will offer a wide variety of target ranges and angles for public shooters at a very reasonable cost ($4.00).  In addition, the new archery range will provide a useful facility for future bowhunter education and NASP activity.

BOU is proud to support this community effort and began showing our support at the open house that was held on Aug. 29.  Working along with RaLynne Takeda, (DWR Assistant Hunter Education Coordinator), BOU board members Michael Finnegan and Frank Taylor spent the day introducing novices to archery.  Shooters of all ages received direct instruction in shooting Genesis bows at a variety of 3D and competition targets.  Based on the many broad smiles and the number of shooters who returned to shoot again through the day, the event was a great success.

We want to thank the DWR for their efforts in building this new facility and for letting us be a part of their continuing programs at Lee Kay.  We look forward to continued collaboration for the good of the sport.
