Welcome Looking for an archery range? Look no further We are a volunteer driven, non-profit organization that is home to one of the best outdoor archery facilities in the State of Texas! We welcome...
Good day!!!
I hope this post finds you well! What a year it has been and then some!?!?
First, I want to thank so many who have helped (presently or in the past): Joe Cashuric, Rick Stonebraker, Dave Nesbit, John Magalong, David Allen, Shane Asmus, Darryl Ramnarace, Rick Braquet, Clarence Gregg, Craig Jameson, Chris Conte, and my wife, Veronyka and daughter, Felecia who all spend countless hours for the success of this club, and this just to name the cream of the crop. This will be my final year as president of BFAC. I want to focus on family, my archery, and some other health issues that are making it more and more difficult for me to keep up. And so, I also want to thank each of you. So many of you have lent a helping hand when one of us needed it. THANK YOU!!! Thank you!!! Thank you!!!
At this time we are now 300 plus memberships strong (more with families) and we are still growing everyday!!! I am astonished at our membership. This club is possible because of our membership, because of YOU!!!
Because of you, our members, we have a great club and things are looking well, however the “workers” (better known as volunteers) are getting weary and tired with all the work that needs to be done on a regular basis, not to mention all the practice that needs to go with trying to win a tournament, or shooting a 16 pointer!!!
So here is my appeal to each of you! I know life is busy, we have many actives we want to attend. Please note that our club is ALL VOLUNTEER DRIVEN!!! That’s right, NO ONE, including the board of directors gets paid for it. From the nicely mowed lawn and the really awesome new website, to all the tournaments and bale maintenance and new target faces, its all done by our membership - YOU!!!
What am I asking for? With 300 plus members, I am asking for our members to step up and help with the everyday maintenance of YOUR club. If you know the 80/20 rule, that should be a minimum of 60 members to help. We all love archery. We all want to make this place what it truly can be! Could you image if we had 60 or more members helping on a regular basis? And why not more? I mean you love archery, right?
It's simple, I, as President of BFAC, am personally asking for your help - I am asking you to get involved in your sport/hobby; in your club, Buffalo Field Archery Club! All the events and maintenance does not happen magically, it happens because of members just like you. So ask not what your club can do for you, but what you can do for your club!
