Bhutanese Traditional Archery Canberra

Today, the President of the Bhutanese Traditional Archery Group (BTAG) and executives from the Bhutan Archery Club Canberra (BACC) gathered at Midpoint House for a special farewell dinner to honor our Dasho Kutsab as he concludes his successful term.

Dasho has been a pillar of strength and an ardent supporter of the archery community here in Canberra and across Australia. Because of his guidance and tireless dedication, traditional archery has also grown into a thriving, vibrant sport across both Canberra and Perth.

As Dasho prepares to return home to serve our King and country, BTAG extends our deepest gratitude for his unwavering guidance, vision, and inspiration. We pray for his safe journey home and wish him success in all his future endeavors la.

Our sincere appreciation goes to the Kharchhu Centre for graciously hosting this memorable evening and allowing us to be part of this event 🙏
