This program is easy to run and flexible enough to adjust to any kind of camp program. What’s more, campers can actually advance to higher levels based on their performance!
Camps are provided with score sheets, award certificates and charts to post for the campers to see their progress. Included are simple instructions and guidelines for the camp to use based on the campers’ abilities and the distances available at the camp. Pins are also available for the five achievement scores at each distance. The five pins represent the colors of the target face, graduating from white to gold.
Scoring qualifications vary from distances of seven yards for campers 8 years of age or younger, to 10, 15 and 20 yards for older archers at camps with stationary targets. There are also qualifications for camps with more than one distance, up to 30 and 50 yards.
On each award certificate there is a place for the camp name and the archery director’s signature. Along with the camper’s name, the certificate also shows at what distance and target size the camper achieved the award and what qualification was attained. On the bottom of the certificate, the USA Archery phone number and website are listed so the campers can seek additional, year-round JOAD club information.
