Archery Day Richmond Hill
About this Event
UPDATE Aug 25: Venue & Date Update
Due to municipal permitting requirements affecting archery in Richmond Hill parks, we have had to relocate Archery Day from our original public-park venue. We are grateful to Circling Hawk Farm for welcoming us and allowing the event to proceed! The event will now take place on Saturday, September 26 (one week later from the original date), with the same session times. Please review the new date and rural location and decide whether to keep or withdraw your registration accordingly. Thank you for your understanding!
EDIT Aug 16: Afternoon general session is full, but if you are interested please join in on the waitlist! Your presence on the waitlist helps us gauge interest in the event and show the city we truly want this near our homes!
We also would welcome those who are interested to spectate at the event then.
DATE AND TIME IS TENTATIVE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
