COLERIDGE — Shannon Benson, teacher at Laurel-Concord-Coleridge Middle School, has incorporated an archery unit for all middle school students.
The LCC Middle School was able to receive the following equipment when they first started this program with a $600 grant from the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission: Bows – 12 Genesis bows (10 right hand and 2 left hand). The Genesis is a compound bow that will fit all student draw lengths without adjustments, regardless of stature; Arrows – 10 dozen full length (31 inches) aluminum shaft arrows; Targets –Five International “bullseye” style, long-life targets with multi-colored scoring face and sturdy base with wheels; Backstop Net – A a 30-foot-long backstop net hung a few feet behind targets to help catch arrows. Equipment Repair Kit – To help get the most out of the equipment investment and keep it in good working order for years of service.
This year the school also received another grant from the Neb. Game and Parks Commission providing over $800 worth of additional archery equipment for $150.
This includes a floor quiver, Training Banners, 3D Targets (Coyote/Turkey), as well as an Indoor Stand.
