Saturday, Dec. 7, marked the first annual Richard and Vicki Koehler Archery Tournament. Being announced in March at the club banquet, this tournament has been in the works long before the announcement.

The tournament on Saturday was a huge venture for the club, with concessions, raffles, and even a taco truck parked outside.

Nearly 400 archers competed, representing 14 different schools. This many archers caused the round house to be transformed into a full archery range, with bullseyes aplenty. In addition the elementary gym hosted the 3D division of the tournament.
