Archery club
In January 2022, we launched a brand new archery club for our local Girlguiding young members. This is an opportunity for youngsters to come and have a go at archery on a regular basis in a fun, relaxed environment. The pilot was so successful, we're now running regularly on a monthly basis and the sessions are open to any young member within the Gloucestershire West division, that's Dursley, Berkeley, Sharpness, Stonehouse, Wotton and all the little villages in between.
The sessions are run once a month by our volunteers, Anne and Clare, who are our archery instructors, plus other volunteers from the area also support on an ad hoc basis. Why not come along and join us?
Dates for 2024 are: 12 January, 9 February, 15 March, 12 April, 10 May, 14 June, 5 July, 13 September, 11 October, 8 November, 13 December

The sessions
|
The evening is broken down into two sessions as follows:
Our venue is Berkeley Scout Hut, just off Park View Road, Berkeley, GL13 9TD. Sessions cost just £3 per girl, per session. This helps us pay the hall rent and towards the upkeep of the equipment and consumables. Each session is run by a volunteer who is a qualified archery instructor. A full risk assessment for the activity is also in place and available below if you wish to view it. |
