Learning how to become an archer is very much a step-by-step method, nock the arrow, draw the bow, aim, and finally shoot. With some patience, that perfect shot (or even hitting the target), can be reached!
Whether you are new to archery or already have some experience under your belt, join fellow Girl Scouts at Cheyenne Mountain State Park's archery range! Make sure to bring a camp chair, a hat, and sunscreen! Bring a picnic lunch for your Girl Scouts to enjoy and be sure to save some time to explore the park! State Park entrance cost not included.
