Our Mission

The South Bay Archery Club was formed to foster, expand and perpetuate the practice of field archery, 3D Target Shooting, and bow hunting for individuals and families.

See our upcoming shoots page for the latest shoot information.

There is a work party scheduled for Saturday May 19th 9am to 1pm at the range.  This is a perfect opportunity to help the club and save money on membership dues for next year.

Membership

Membership for the first year is $140 ($120 annual membership, $5 for a new key and $15 processing fee). Each year thereafter the annual fee is $120 (plus $5 for a new key) and is due on February 1st. If you work at least one work party per year, our annual membership decreases to only $72 per year. If you wish to have a hard copy of our newsletter mailed to you instead of e-mailed, please add $1 per month or $12 a year.

We hold a club shoot on the 4th Sunday (NOT the last Sunday) of each month except December plus additional fun 3-d shoots throughout the year.  Please click on the upcoming shoots tab.

Membership is $125 ($120 plus a $5 key fee) or $140 if you're a brand new member (or delinquent).
