The second and forth Thursday's shall be dedicated to "member practice" - an opportunity for team members to practice their skills on their own and at no cost.
Please Note: Since the range is always open for public use (including walk-ins), team members do not have exclusive use of the range during designated team nights. ArcheryUSA will make every effort possible to not book parties during team time. |
