The Archery in Schools program that was originated here in Kentucky is doing a lot to change the view of a lot of parents and students as to just what archery means to bowhunting.
You should see some of the kids shooting in the class at school, cheerleaders
or former drop outs are actually adapting to a sport that brings them in a circle back to the hunting desires of most archers.
If your state hasn't started the program then work to get it done, many states have sent their teachers to receive training and see the start of a program that really developes the mind and body of those students.[8D]

Hey guys!

Thanks for all the great posts! Jimpok61 thats a great idea i checked with my school if i could do it! they said if i get enough people interested, they will consider it. Once again, thanks everyone!
;) Thanks for the complement Archer 18. Another suggestion; poke around and ? some teachers. Many of them are quite liberal in their thought patterns. However, there is usually some more conservative {closet hunters] that just don't go around talking about hunting because like yourself they feel that their associates will ostrasize them. ? them one on one, in private. Tell them your idea about possibly starting a club. Show them an outline about your clubs objectives, membership potential, activities, etc.. Most school clubs require that a teacher or two be involved for obvious reasons. If you can line up a mentor or two then you can, with their help and guidance, further pursue convincing the administration that you have a viable after school program for kids to become involved. They would want a well planned presentation. If you get to this stage of forming a club I would suggest you emphasize to them the following: 1] Adults are always complaining that the youth of today does not become involved. 2] many students are looking for interesting after-school programs. 3] convince them that conservation and the use of field trips will help students understand more about the various problems that society faces, up front and personal, not just classroom theorizing. I could go on but I'm sure you get my drift. If you want something. Pursue it and don't let your trepidation or fears stop you from attaining your goal. GOOD LUCK MY YOUNG HUNTING FRIEND!
