Our Club has had a tremendous amount of support from the Atlantic Booster club. The booster club was instrumental in helping gather funds to start archery in the school. In October of 2013 the booster club donated $1200 matching funds received from a DNR grant to buy equipment. In March 2015 the booster club gave another $1000 to support the group in their quest to nationals.

On April 11th the Archery Club Foundation with the Pheasants Forever Cass County Chapter conducted a bow raffle. Deter Motor Company purchased the bow to be raffled with all proceeds going to support the Atlantic Archery Club through the Atlantic Archery Club Foundation. Choice Printing along with the BTW and Atlantic Nursing and Rehab provided the raffle tickets. The raffle grossed over $7300 for the club. The winner of the bow was Roni Hook from Griswold.

On April 14th the Atlantic Archery Club Foundation received a grant of $3000 from the Atlantic Rotary Club for equipment. This donation to date is the single largest donation the club has received. The Archery Club Foundation has also received $300 donations from the Atlantic Kiwanis, Hy Vee, and Camblin Mechanical, Don Sonntag / Sonntag Development.

We have also had contributions to date from the following- Mainlander Law Firm, J & B Amusement, Alan & Brenda Zellmer, Atlantic Pest Control, Roland Funeral Service, Fridley Theaters, First Whitney Bank & Trust and Hansen Graphix.

The Archery Club Foundation is made up of parents of Atlantic Archery Club members who are helping raise funds to support the clubs effort to provide a quality program.

The Archery Club has been assisted by two coaches who have went above and beyond the call of duty for the kids. The Archery Club would like to thank Dent Petty and Clint Roland for helping make the archery club what it is.

More Funds are needed for the Archery Club as a whole and for our Trip to nationals. If you would like to make a donation please contact jwilliams@atlanticiaschools.org
