will be held at the Olympic Shooting Park in Leitches Creek.
760 Upper Leitches Creek Rd, Upper Leitches Creek, NS B2A 4B5
Everyone can attend the shoot. No memberships are required!
Join us for the TAANS shoot on July 13th and 14th, promising two days packed with archery excitement!
Registration kicks off on Saturday from 8:00 am to 8:45 am,
followed by four rounds (each day 2 rounds) of 20 targets each, shooting two arrows.
On Saturday, the action begins with the first round at 9:00 am, followed by a lunch break and the second round.
Sunday starts bright and early at 9:00 am for the first round.
Please take note of the following information:
Since the Metro Rifle and Pistol Range is ‘off the grid,’ we won’t have our usual fancy food, but we’ve got you covered with a delicious menu.
Lunch will include hot dogs, sausages, and desserts. A vegetarian option will be available for those who informed us during pre-registration.
There will be yogourt, bananas and apples 🙂
The supper (BBQ) options include meat burgers, vegetarian burgers, hot dogs/sausages, pasta salad, potato salad, coleslaw, and various treats/sweets.
Complementary bottled water and pop are provided.
Please bring your own breakfast if needed.
To keep it affordable, we will charge $5.00 per meal. If you participate in all three meals during the event, the total cost will be $15.00. Not too bad, right?
You can go to the ‘lunch/BBQ’ Buffet multiple times without any restrictions on the amount of food.
The $5.00 fee per meal/per person is simply a donation towards the food expenses.
You can buy the lunch/BBQ tickets at the registration desk on the day of the event.
Please bring cash for the registration and lunch tickets 🙂
On Saturday evening, weather permitting, we look forward to a cosy gathering around the campfire.
Please note that this is subject to NS Fire restrictions and burn safety guidelines.
For those staying overnight, please be aware that the MRPC range is ‘off the grid’. There will be a washroom and a hand-wash station available. Tents, trailers, and RVs are all welcome!
Please be advised that the parking and tent areas are gravel and do not have grass or lawn.
Don’t miss out on this fantastic event!
