Okay, I read the post by Woody about the archery team in Ky.
How many schools here in Indiana have the NASP (National Archery in the Schools Program)
? I can tell ya ....
FIVE !!!!!!
Okay, back to my subject. The local school here in Linton, is a participant of the NASP.....I recently met with the teacher about it. Seems the funding isn't there to expand it, or to maintain it. They work with what they have. The genesis bows are in good shape, the targets could use replaced, and the arrows need work. I am doing the work on the arrows, re-fletching them....
What I need is some ideas on how to go about raising monetary funds (the school doesn't want to just go out and ask...) and or services. (maintenance on the bows).
I'd like to organize some kind of outdoorsy thing, since it is an archery program. I'd like to organize a Benefit 3-D shoot, or something along that line.
Anyone know how to go about doing such things? I am usually on the supporting end of fund raising, not the organizing end....
Does anyone belong to a group or organization that would like to help the kids out? Anyone own a shop close to here that would help maintenance the bows for a small fee? The schools PE fund might as well be non existent, so anything I do, has to be fairly, well....to be honest cheap.
Anyone interested in getting the NASP in your school??? Contact your state coordinator now! It is a great program!!!!!! I have contact info if you are interested.
Thanks for reading such a long post!!!!!
