I recently had a post on here about reaching more people, especially kids, promoting the joy of traditional archery. I got several great suggestions from TradGangers.
I began contacting schools in Wisconsin about sending them complimentary copies of TradArchers' World magazine. So far, we have 25 school districts involved. However, that is a drop in the bucket compared to what is possible.
I came up with another way to reach more kids, and that is to offer ANY school district free PDF downloads of TradArchers' World magazine. That could be downloaded to a librarian's computer and shared with network computers in the library or LMC. The major problem is reaching the tens of thousands of schools out there.
If TradGangers would pass this offer on to schools in their area and tell them to contact me at dabowbarn@juno.com, that would help immensely in this effort. I want kids to at least be aware of the fun to be had with the lifetime sport of traditional archery and this would be a step in the right direction.

That sounds like a great way to get more exposure for traditional archery. Perhaps you could write up something for the Stump Shooter and members can help you reach the various schools. Do you have an email that can go out that explains what you are doing?

I just joined WTA a few weeks ago, mainly to check out BowJam I have to admit.  I became interested in making longbows (mainly from boards) a little over a year ago so most of my time on this forum is spent reading the Bowyer's Bench.  I do like to shoot them as well as make them (or try to make 'em) and hope I can get to a couple of the shoots this year.  Hope to meet some of you along the way.

Welcome Greg. I share your passion for bow building and look forward to seeing your bows. Make sure you ask for me at the events, I also look forward to meeting you.

Thanks Greg!  Looking forward to meeting you, too.
