Archery Assistance


The CPW archery program teaches target archery to members of the public using steps that are safe and encourage success. Archery volunteers support events, clinics and program participants, both youth and adults, using an established curriculum.

Archery events may include structured classes, school programs, and large scale, free-flowing events where participants are only engaged for a few minutes. Volunteers usually work as a team with staff members, and may be eligible to be trained as instructors in the future.

Support this public outreach effort and join our archery team today!
