An archery tournament held by the Green Creek Archery Club held at this years’ Green Creek Heritage Festival was a great success.

Seventeen archers participated, ranging in age from 11 to 63 years old.  Several of the archers traveled more than three hours to get here and shoot with the local club.

Coaches Jim Vennera and Steve Burney said they were proud of the scores turned in by their team.

In the 11-12 year old age group,  Rachel Roberson took first place in the female recurve division with a score of 306 (out of 720 possible points).

Josh Streacker came in second in the male recurve division with a 294. In the 13-14 year old age group, Phil Burney won first place for male recurve with 469.

The team had two shooters in the male compound division, with Rick Burney shooting a 628 to take first, and Matthew Loman coming in second with a 447.
