Summer safety
We shoot outdoors and the range can be very sunny and hot. While there is some shade, archers are advised to bring water bottles and use sun screen and bug spray.
In the advent of adverse weather
If adverse weather occurs during practice, archers and coaches will retire from the range to the Camp's Morris Center. If weather is threatening before practice, please check your email before you head to practice. We will send an email notification if practice is cancelled.
