All arrangements going well for this Roving Marks, if you haven't been to one before come along and give it a go its a bit different John Holder is a real character he really does make the day lots of fun. The venue is about 3 miles from M1 junction 23, or around 8 miles from A42 Ashby-de-la-Zouch. It is one of the highest points in Leicestershire with spectacular views, its a gradual climb, and fairly easy walking to the trig point at the top. We will have light snack and cold drinks on sale, and a raffle Adults £5.00 under 16yrs £2.50 10.30am start. If you want any more information or directions email me for a flyer and map _________________ aka Cherrie Secretary Black Arrow Field Archery Club

Not looking good... looks like it's one of the Dates for the Derbyshire league (target). Bum! I'd started making a new set of arrows for the occasion! Oh well suppose I ought to shoot the flatbow around the woods more often anyway! _________________ :: Sig courtesy of CamdogXIII of EMP ::

It's the one we're hosting, and I've agreed to do quite a bit of work on the day... so unfortunately not an option.

Only crisps, cake, chocolate bars and cold drinks. Most roving shoots don't seem to bother with catering, so they won't be expecting anything much. Looking forward to meeting you _________________ aka Cherrie Secretary Black Arrow Field Archery Club
