Elite Archers "Fallen Angels" 3-D CHARITY SHOOT
Elite Archers Founder, Ed Chambers is putting together an ANNUAL 3-D CHARITY SHOOT to help the less fortunate, the "homeless". In the future he will be contacting local archery clubs to ask of them if they too would like to host this shoot. Contacts will also include but not limited to Sportsman Clubs, Supermarkets/Grocery stores and Sporting Goods stores. Pick-up and distribution shall be handled by The Volunteers of America. The "Fallen Angels" 3-D CHARITY SHOOT can take place within the months of June to September. It will be asked of archery clubs that host this shoot to accept donated items of equal to or greater than their normal registration fees.
If every contact agrees to help, then all of us will have helped those in need. If you need to think about the "PROFIT LOSS" for one shooting event, then may I suggest that you also look at the "PROFIT GAIN". The "PROFIT LOSS" takes away the monies for that one day event. The "PROFIT GAIN" gives someone A CHANCE to LIVE ONE MORE DAY, HAVE FOOD ONE MORE DAY, and TO STAY WARM, DRY and SHELTERED FOR MANY DAYS TO COME. Their "PROFIT GAIN" means they SURVIVED - ONE MORE DAY. Their "PROFIT LOSS" takes away a lot more!
I'd like to see this event be more than a Local event. Hopefully it will reach Archery Clubs throughout Ohio and become an event in other States as well. Start Small, Think Big. Helping just a few, then Helping Many Others!!!
