Yesterday was District 7 competition for the East Forsyth Hunter Safety Shooting Team! And the team that C was on placed 1st....did ya HEAR me....1ST in Archery!!!! C scored a 198 out of 200. And in shotgun he scored 180 out of 200. The team that he was on was invited to the STATE competition in Ellerbee, NC in April. They beat Forbush by 1 point!!!
Now the practice starts ALL over again on Tuesday. He has to requalify for shotgun, archery, and rifle. He didn't get to shoot rifle in this competition even though he came in 7th out of 28. And the reason is that would have put him on the 2nd team, and once you qualify on a high team you are on that team. One of the guys on his team won individual award for archery, he beat C by 1 point. Now we have raffles and dinners to run to hopefully raise money so that if they do really well at State they can go to Nationals in New Mexico in July.
It was 83 degrees there yesterday and talk about HOT!!!! I guess I'll have to design and get more t-shirts made for the group. It's a good thing that I had t-shirts made for them, they all ended up stripping down to their t-shirts. This is the one that I've been working on for them to wear to Nationals if they make it. And to put logos of sponsors on there.
