For those attending, here are some additional notes about the event from the tournament director Bill Scully:
Tournament Information, rules, and courtesies
Maps of the range layout, and local food options
NOTE: The venue for this event is getting really full. The bales are all allocated to various distance/target combinations, so the remaining slots are empty slots on the bales. (Compound Cubs and Recurve/Barebow Bowman)
Other registrants will go onto a waiting list. Historically, around 10% of registrants will drop out of an event, so I do anticipate openings existing in the week before the event. If a situation does arise and you need to drop out, I do appreciate how well our community always does about contacting us so we can free up slots for other participants.
I’m delighted at the response to this event. I do want to clarify that the all-ages ITAA Outdoor State Championship will take place as usual in August, as well. So if you do not end up with a slot for this event, you will still have opportunity to participate in a state championship this summer.
