The Annual Watermelon Splat! 7:00-8:00 session – 7/6/26

Hey Club Archers! Let's shoot some fruit!
We've got a different kind of target today – watermelons! Join us for a messy fruit shoot-out for some extra archery fun.

This year we're taking the Watermelon Splat outdoors and putting our targets up against the sledding hill at Barrie Park!
 

Archery is for everyone! Our instructor is trained in adaptive archery and the elements used to make this sport accessible. Please contact us ahead of time if there are any accommodations you may need!
