2 Outreach Program School is in session again for the month of September! As many kids and students head off to classes (myself included), some archers still found some time to come out to the range to shoot. On September 16 th, Diablo hosted a beginner class for four new archers. The class was headed by our own Bruce Jordan and went over safety, equipment, form and range etiquette. It was well received by the students who were placing quite a few arrows into our practice targets by the end of the night! Way to go, Archers! We have also scheduled an event with a Boy Scout troop from Brentwood for Friday, September 23 rd. This event came from our beginner class in August. We are very excited to support these scouts next week! If you are interested in supporting our classes, please feel free to me. I would love to have experienced archers on hand to answer questions, share experiences and help these new archers begin their journey in the sport. I will be attending my Level 2 class on October 1 and 2 and will not be present at the board meeting. I plan on attending on November, but if you have any questions or suggestions; feel free to contact me by at diablobowmenoutreach@gmail.com. On another note, I attended the Pacifica CBH/SAA State 900 on Saturday, September 17 th and was very proud to see our member, Gianna D Arezzo shoot a 894 to beat the cub state record in the event! Gianna s family joined Diablo Bowmen in June. She also placed in Las Vegas this past January and in the Nationals in Washington in July. It will be interesting following her archery adventures! We had many other archers in attendance for the event as well. Thank you to all who participated. For those in the Regional Championship, good luck on October 9 th for the Outdoor Tournament at Briones Archery. Melissa Pool Diablo Bowmen Outreach Manager diablobowmenoutreach@gmail.com 2
