Archery in Stanley

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

I visited with Dustin Stammen, a student at the Stanley High School about what he thought was fun and what he’d tell someone who doesn’t know Stanley, what Stanley would have to offer. He told me that archery was fun for his friends, family and himself. What he liked most about hunting around Stanley is the wide open spaces and not a lot of people to hinder his sport. He and his family hunt deer, elk and moose in the fall and turkey in the spring. He told me that he and his dad as been successful in bagging deer and turkey but the elk and moose hasn’t been so successful. During the winter, Dustin, his friends and family go the community building on Tuesday nights to practice archery up stairs. They have targets already set up. There is no fee to practice. He has taken the time to help anyone who needs help in archery and whether he knows them or not. So if you get the urge to know about archery on a Tuesday winter night, it sounds like the community building is the place to be. I bet you’d find Dustin and his family there too.

thanks Dustin!
