Missouri State Parks invites the public to begin their archery journey by attending hands-on courses at five parks this summer, including Cuivre River, Echo Bluff, Graham Cave, Knob Noster and Stockton state parks. This program is for anyone who wants to learn the basics of archery and atlatl throwing.
The Learn2 Aim courses offer two hours of free instruction and are open to ages 10 and older. Registration is required and all slots will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis. Program dates, times and other details, including registration information, can be found at mostateparks.com/learn2.
Missouri State Parks provides the equipment, including bows, atlatls, targets and expertise, in a safe environment. Participants should wear comfortable clothing and closed-toed shoes.
Participants must be at least 10 years of age. Children 17 and under must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Parents and guardians do not have to participate, but must be on hand to provide adult supervision. Participants should be comfortable around bows and atlatls.
