Upcoming weather & Wolf Ridge Archery Alerts
Just a reminder that this winter WRA does not have an indoor location. In previous years we used the Pavilion with space heaters. However, due to Covid restrictions that is not an option.  In case of snow or otherwise inclement weather, we will obviously cancel.  We also have a temperature cancellation policy. From the responses we received from our winter weather survey, 45 degrees is the cancellation temp for us this winter. 

  • If the temps all day are forecast to be below 45 degrees, practice will be canceled.
  • If the temp is forecast to drop below 45 degrees during practice (3:00 - 5:00 pm) practice will be canceled.
  • If temps are forecast to stay at or above 45 degrees during the practice hours, practice will occur.
If we cancel, we will send an email via Wolf Ridge Alerts by 2:00 pm at the latest on the day of practice. So if you are not already on our Wolf Ridge Alerts mailing list, you will want to join. Just go to our Wolf Ridge Alerts page and fill out its form to be added.

Also, don't forget that due to Covid, you must sign up for a lane by 9:00 am the morning of the practice. You can sign up here.

Upcoming practices: 16th and 23rd

We are reopened to current WRA club members. 
  • To limit the number of archers, there is a signup sheet. Please select your day(s) and lane(s). We ask that you sign up by 9:00 am the day of the practice. That allows our coaches to better plan their day.
 The club bows, arrows, and ground quivers will be available. We ask that you purchase your own finger tab and arm guard as they are not easily sanitized between uses. We will have some for sale on site. You can also purchase these at from Mace Sports, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Walmart, First Flight Archery, Eagle's Flight Archery, and Lancaster Archery Supply. (Some folks have indicated that local stores are running low, so online shops may be a good source.)

And as with our most recent practices,
  • Archers must sign the new Camp-WRA Covid waiver before they attend their first practice. This is a Camp requirement. The waiver is online   It will prompt you for your email address and then send you an online form for your electronic signature. The form supports the signature of two adults and acknowledgement of any minor children. Please have this submitted at least a day before the first practice you plan to attend. We will confirm the waiver status the morning of practice. Once signed, a waiver is valid for a year.
  • Before you sign up, please read our Covid Procedures and our Sign Up Details so you understand the field layout and rules of behavior. Among other things mask wearing and social distancing are required when not on the shooting line.

Thanks for your support and patience.
