This club will focus on Archery and is open to all currently enrolled 4-H youth 8 years of age and older. If youth is not yet enrolled they may enroll in order to participate in this program. For safety reasons, youth under 8 years old may not attend this program. Youth do not need to have experience in Archery. Equipment will be provided.
Karen Burcroff, 4-H educator in Seneca County, says the following of their program,"The 4-H program of Seneca County has invited Cayuga 4-Hers to join their Archery Club as part of the greater program of 4-H Shooting Sports. 4-H Shooting Sports is focused on safety and youth development. Youth must be at least 8 years old and be currently enrolled in either Seneca or Cayuga county's 4-H program.
The NYS 4-H Shooting Sports program utilizes the resources of the land-grant university system and the time, talent and dedication of state and nationally certified Cornell Cooperative Extension educators and 4-H volunteers. Safety is always the primary focus of the program, along with positive youth development skills. The emphasis of all 4-H programs is the development of youth as individuals and as responsible and productive citizens. The activities of the 4-H Shooting Sports program and the support of caring adult leaders provide young people with opportunities to develop life skills, self-worth and conservation ethics. Some of the specific objectives of the program include: teaching self-discipline, problem solving, sportsmanship and appreciation and understanding of natural resources. The shooting sports program is also an opportunity to strengthen families through participation in lifelong recreational activities. We do recommend that a parent or guardian accompany the youth participants whenever possible."
