Archery in the Parks

A naturalist helps a child learn to shoot a bow.

Become your own action hero!

 

Why not go beyond video games—especially when kids love the challenge of archery? Aim for daring family adventure at an Archery in the Parks program.

  • Hands-on instruction in shooting a bow and arrow from certified instructors.
  • Use of all equipment included.
  • No experience necessary; safe and supportive environment.
  • For ages eight and older.
  • All programs are free, but a vehicle permit is required to enter all Minnesota state parks ($7/day or $35/year).
