Lakehead Archers

Attention members: the indoor range is closed on Tuesday, June 23 from 4:30-6:00 for a private group. You’re welcome to use the outdoor range. Thanks for your cooperation.

Due to this crazy weather, we are cancelling tonight’s 3D League. We will make up this night on another date. Sorry that Mother Nature is being a witch lately….

Bugs weren’t too bad for our first Archery Canada Outdoor Mail Match. Nice turnout and some new faces. Fun times.

Please note that the indoor range will be closed on Friday, June 19 from 6-9 pm for a private party. Members are still welcome to use the outdoor range if desired.

Also, don’t forget that Thursday 3D night
is happening this week and next from 6-9 pm. Anyone is welcome!

Outdoor range is groomed and set for the first Archery Canada Outdoor Mail Match, running Wednesday until September 30, 2026.
6pm start time. Bring bug spray and or Thermacells.
See you tomorrow.

Just a reminder that we are now closed to the public until the fall, aside from special events such as our Thursday 3D Nights in June. Keep an eye out for other events that will be posted on our socials!

Lakehead Archers will once again be a host site for the Archery Canada Outdoor Mailmatch. As it is difficult to attend National archery competitions, the Outdoor Mailmatch allows archers to shoot scores without having to leave their local club. Each week archers submit one score with the top six scores shot throughout the designated time period used to determine your final placing against archers from across Canada in their respective age and equipment division. The competition takes place from June 1 - September 30, 2026.
Shooting will take place on Wednesdays. Our first score will be shot on Wednesday June 17 at 6pm. Please be on time. Scoring will commence after practice. You will submit your scorecard that was signed by another Archery Canada member to the club's coordinator (Shane Baker) on completion of the 720 round.
The round consists of 12 ends of six arrows. You will have 4 minutes to shoot the six arrows.
An additional $30 is required for targets supplied by the club.
If you are looking to shoot and not be a member of Archery Ontario and Archery Canada the fee will be $40. You will not be eligible for medals from Archery Canada.
If you have any questions please message me and I'd be happy to answer them.
Once you have become a member of Archery Ontario, it includes your Archery Canada membership. You will have a membership number assigned to you.
You will need that number to register for the event.
Good luck!
Shane

Day 2 of the NOSA/D&R Rubber Boot Shoot was awesome! Beautiful weather, great course, and terrific prizes…what more could you ask for??

Thanks to everyone who came out this weekend and to all those who helped out with taking down targets and cooking food. President Joe set up an amazing course as always!

There are prizes in the canteen for everyone who wasn’t in attendance for the draws. We had enough swag so that every shooter got something! To collect your prize, please pop in on a Thursday night between 6-9 to pick it up, or send us a message to arrange another time. Any prizes not collected in 2 weeks will go back in the prize bin for the next shoot.

We can’t thank our generous sponsors enough for their continued support of Lakehead Archers! dandrsports teamnosa
