Looking for an activity that's a bullseye for family fun? Scott County's Cedar Lake Farm Regional Park is hosting a Family Archery event on Saturday, October 12, from 10 AM to noon. Outdoor Recreation School instructors are set to teach participants the basics of archery, including the all-important safety elements. The event promises to offer a chance for attendees to develop fundamental skills, take part in engaging challenges, and experience the rush of hitting the target, with all equipment provided by the organizers.
The archery session is open to aspiring archers aged 8 and up, though it's worth noting that kids 11 and under will need to be accompained by an adult. To ensure a spot for you or your little Robin Hood, reservations are necessary and must be made by two days prior to the event. Those interested can to call 763-559-6700 to book their place. A decent discount of 20 percent is available for groups of four or more, so rally the squad and take aim at a group outing.
At a cost of $12 per participant, the event seems to hit the mark of affordable family entertainment. This archery outing not only serves as a lesson in precision and focus but also provides an idyllic outdoor setting at Cedar Lake Farm Regional Park, where the forest can act as both backdrop and inspiration for the ancient sport.
According to a publication on Scott County's official website, "This program is for ages 8+ and children 11 years and younger must be accompanied by an adult." It's clear the county is aiming to provide an engaging, educational, and safe environment for families to not only learn a new skill but also to actively bond and create memories together.
