How did fundraising go for the 2024 competition season?

Extremely well! Including cash and in-kind donations (like hotel rooms and airline tickets) from generous donors, we raised a total of $19,266 for the 2024 competition season. We used this plus JOAD dues to fund:

  • 26 full scholarships (registration fees) for archers to compete in local tournaments.
  • 11 full scholarships (lodging and registration fees) and one partial scholarship for archers to compete in "road trip" tournaments: Arizona Cup, Buckeye Classic, SoCal Showdown, CA State Indoor Championships, CA State JOAD Indoor Championships, Indoor National Championships, JOAD Indoor National Championships. Plus full or partial lodging and all coach credential fees for coaches to support archers at these events.
  • 6 full scholarships (lodging, registration fees, and transportation stipend) for archers to compete at JOAD Outdoor National Championships, plus full or partial lodging and all coach credential fees for coaches to support the 13 archers who competed at this event.

At our first ever on-range fundraising event, guests tried archery under the instruction of our JOAD archers, ate 90 pounds of BBQ, heard about the history of our home range (the world's oldest continually operating archery range), learned amazing facts about archery, shot a crazy assortment of targets, and watched exciting exhibition matches complete with color and play-by-play commentary.


Thanks to generous donations and auction bids, we raised $3,620.12!
