Steady aim, patience and practice add up to a bullseye.

Archery

We marvel at the way that you seem to make each camping day better than the one before. Adamsville, Tennessee

Archery has long been a favorite at Camp Merri-Mac. It is a sport that requires total relaxation and calm deliberation, but also offers beginners a chance to improve quickly. Often a girl whose coordination or temperament prevents her from excelling in other sports obtains a great deal of satisfaction in this area.

Campers at Merri-Mac use quality recurve bows of varying sizes and draw weights. Like our other programs, our girls can start as beginners and progress through advanced as their accomplishments are recognized through the awarding of bronze, silver and gold bars. In archery, the gold bar also coincides with the requirements for American Archer, a nationally recognized archery qualification.
