For those looking to sharpen their skills or string a bow for the first time, Scott County offers a Family Archery event that might just hit the bull's-eye of outdoor fun. On Sunday, November 3, from 1 PM to 3 PM, novices and experienced archers are invited to Cedar Lake Farm Regional Park to dive into the basics of archery, including elements of safety and fundamental skills. And with fun challenges to take part in, attendees can test their new-found prowess in a supportive atmosphere.

According to an announcement on the Scott county's official website, the Outdoor Recreation School instructors will be on hand to guide participants through the archery adventure. More than just flinging arrows towards a target, this experience prioritizes safety and skill development, ensuring everyone walks away a little more adept with the bow. The event, designed for participants ages 8 and up, also insists that enthusiastic children 11 years and younger must come with an adult. Let's say it's the type of thing that keeps a Sunday from landing in the dull zone.

Making a reservation is as easy as hitting a stationary target from up close - simply call 763-559-6700 at least two days prior to ensure a spot. The cost of $12 per archer is a small price to pay for the chance to learn a new sport or refine your existing skills. Plus, groups of four or more can snag a 20 percent discount, making it a perfect outing for families or a band of friends aiming for a day of togetherness.

For those interested, the park's staff have made sure all equipment is provided, catering to everyone from the seasoned archers to those who've never touched a bowstring. Not everyone can say they've felt the rush of hitting a target, but this event might just change that.
