Thanks to Darcy Dean for getting us involved in the Glade International

have used it a lot to take out animals and supplies. Occasionally
it gets stuck, but someone is always able to pull it out. Thanks
to Bruce Peters for organizing and fixing the Gator.
We participated in Duncan Days this summer, we gave the public a
taste of shooting into a refer truck. Thanks to Roger Walker for
setting up and organizing, Nicolson’s for the use of the truck
and all the volunteers that came out to teach the public.
Adopt a butt is in full swing, we have two butts named 6- Hidden
Treasures and 9- Sanctuary, check them out. Anyone else named their
butt?
We now have a business cards for the directors to use and t-shirts
and bumper stickers advertizing the Hell Hole shoot and we have
evolved into the future with a site on Facebook , check it out.
We put on a coach training clinic in September, taught by Ron Ostermeier

Dewi Griffiths, Bill Sampson, Darcy Dean and Sierra Dean bringing
our total to 18. While Ron was out he also put on an equipment clinic
and came to JOP and coached the kids.
We had an archery clinic in September to help our interested archers
and several shooting clinics, thanks to Rick Ellis for organizing.
Many groups have used our club and facilities, Search and Rescue,
Boy Scouts, Cubs and Pathfinders and as well as other children’s
groups, lots of them have asked to return.
Cowichan Bowmen bought a container to store equipment, thanks to
Rick Dudman for finding and placing it in the back of the club house.
We are working on the electrical, lights and power for the container
and upgrading for the club house. Thanks to Kent Willner for all
his work.
We moved the broadhead target to the right hand side of the target
field for safety measures. Thanks to Rick Dudman and his helpers.
We have some great shoots, including the January shoot, the Mail
Match, the Hell Hole, the JOP indoors and outdoors, the BC Outdoors
and the Harvest Moon. I got great feed back on all of these shoots.
Thanks to all who help keep the club running, ( I can’t name
all of you but you know who you are), chopping and stacking wood,
sweeping floors, cooking, washing toilets, trail cleaning, bush
whacking, raking leaves, burning , target building, rabbit chasing

on all of our great tournaments.

· Field Target Course – Rick D. – all put back
together. The work party went well and thanks to all that came.
The Target Course is not being touched until the week before the
shoot
· Our club interest in Duncan Days – Roger W. –
Thanks to all the guys that set up and took it down. Did a really
good job and a whole lot of interest was shown. Thanks to Carlee
for the roofing on the stairs. Thank you letters have been sent
out to the community involved
· Purchase a container for storage- Rick D. – we got
it coming on Friday morning at a cost of $500.00. It is going to
cost close to $100.00 for hauling it. Thanks to Rick for all your
work to get the spot cleared for it
· Glade international competition – Darcy D. 16 active
shooters and the next shoot is this Saturday August 13th
· Al Wills budget for the Canadian Championship – Penny
H. – Al wants everyone to know that he is on board and also
Ken Cameron will give us support as well for this event. There was
a big discussion on moving butts and not and maybe Search and Rescue
might be willing to do this for a free weekend at our club. Decided
that 24 field targets would be a stretch, and possibly a safety
concern. In the end it is a really good idea but, it stretches our
abilities

1. How did Bryan H. and Alfred B do at the Nationals – Bryan
H. & Alfred B.- it seems that Bryan H. came in 3rd in his category
and Alfred B. came in 4th in his. One thing Bryan H. brought up
was that our courses are safer than their’s. At the Nationals
Bryan H. was in a shoot called The Grand Prix where the top shooters
take one shot and the closest to the middle keep shooting until
the last one stands, and the last one was Bryan H. (he got a trophy
for this event). Bryan H. wanted to motion to sponsor a target for
the next Nationals but, we are going to table this to next meeting,
so Bryan H. can find out more information.
2. The combination lock on the gate is not being closed after the
tumblers have changed. We need a one on one lock school with the
locks on our brochure
3. Roger W. wants to put how well our members did at the Nationals
in the paper. Bryan is going to write something up for it and phone
the Citizen to see if they will do a write up. We should all be
able to recognize their accomplishments.

the World Police and Fire Games 2 t-shirts, and one golf
shirt, and pins, plus $500.00 to help with travel costs 2nd

We had a very good year this year and accomplished a lot. We had

our total to 11. We also had a coach training clinic and now have
4 new coaches, Rick Dudman, Roger Walker, John Ladouceur and Trevor
Ashton bringing our total to 12. We have eight people on our safety
committee, headed by Eric Walker. We had a coaching clinic in the
summer to help our coach’s fine tune their skills. We have
new and improved Target butts and Field course butts. Our new winter
League is having fun shooting on Sundays. Some of our archers have
improved with an archery clinic, with another one coming up next
year, thanks to Rick Ellis for organizing. We installed new cabinetry,
cleaned up the equipment room and the back room, fixed the shooting
wall and installed extra lighting. We are working on changing the
bylaws, don’t forget the Extraordinary Meeting on Dec. 14th,
2010 or put in a proxy vote. We have some great shoots, including
the January shoot, the Mail Match, the Hell Hole, the JOP indoors
and outdoors, the BC Outdoors and the Harvest Moon. I got great
feed back on all of these shoots. Thanks to all who help keep the
club running, chopping and stacking wood, sweeping floors, cooking,
washing toilets, trail cleaning, bush whacking, raking leaves, burning
, target building, and much more. Looking forward to the coming
year.
C. Penny Howard President Cowichan Bowmen
5. Vice-President’s Report:
It has been a year of many achievements. Starting with a totally
new field course. The hosting of the first 3D shoot of the year,
Our June 3D Hell Hole shoot, FCA mail match, the BC Regional Indoor,
JOP Regional Indoor JOP Regional Outdoor, the B.C. Outdoor and the
harvest Moon 3D. All these shoots and general club maintenance needed
a large amount of support and work from the membership. We probably
haven’t had so many work parties in a year since we built
the club house. But the membership came through. All these shoots
were great successes. We also have a full field course again. That
is something we have not had for a few years. The numbers of new
archers that have tried archery this year at the Cowichan Cowmen
is in my estimation one of the largest number yet. I know the entire
club can be proud of these achievements.

Sincerely,
Richard Kennett

well with 11 people, 1 person from our Club won first place. There
were 677 archers in all that participated in this event.
· Search and Rescue – Roger W. –it is on April
24-25, 2010, they will be limited to an area. They will be looking
after everything. There will be a notice in place that the Field
Course will be off limits
· Roof’s extra expenses – Penny H. –we
will leave it be and take it off the agenda.

really well.

- We will sell our souvenirs at the shoot
- Normal attendance is 60-65 people for this shoot
- Penny Howard will be the contact person
Hellhole Shoot – Mike G. – via email from Mike Gravelle
- the poster for the hell hole shoot is done
- it’s been handed out to many places so far, and I’ve
still got more places to put it, including the Port Alberni shoot
this month.
- I’m starting the prize gathering, but I need to say to the
club, and I’ve said it before… we need club members
to exhaust all their contacts for prize donations. Dawn, Bertha,
Richard Kennett, and Mike G. are helping in this cause, but more
action, by more members, is necessary. I ask this of everyone at
every meeting I attend, but I think it is ignored or forgotten soon
after I say it. PLEASE everyone, pitch in if you can. We don’t
have Alpine sponsoring the shoot this year and Jim Archer is not
donating that enormous amount of prizes he did last year. There
is no budget for prizes for this shoot, it’s all by donation.
Thanks for your help. (Dawn P. is sending out an email for help
and will write a note on the board at the club for donations)
- I would have asked for a work party to map out a course already
for the hell hole shoot, but the target work parties have been very
numerous… so, there has been no reasonable time to ask of
any more help from the members. Hopefully we’ll be able to
get on it soon.
- I will need to gather at least a few people soon to look at the
3D targets with me (checking how many targets we have that are shootable,
and how we can arrange them throughout the course to make an interesting
shoot.)
6. New Business:
1. Rick Ellis and Marie Metcalf want to rent the clubhouse on May
8th, 2010 – this is an archery clinic done by Al Wills to
teach from 9:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m. They do not want exclusive
use of clubhouse. Dawn P. to send out an email of this. It was decided
that as they were not using club equipment or stopping the use of
the facilities, they have the right to do this with no extra charges.
2. Eric Walker and the Scouts – April 16th, 2010 – 40
kids for archery lessons. There will be 4 groups of 10 kids. Ten
kids want to camp overnight. This event will start at 6:00 p.m.

4. Treasurer’s Report: There is not one at this time as I
do not have the books
5. Old Business:
· The roof – Richard K. – just about have it
done
· Incentives – Bryan H. - I believe this to be closed.
It was decided at the last ‘incentive meeting’ that
we would not be implementing anything new ‘strategies’
for work party attendance. Instead it was decided that we would
plan out the year as far as our commitments for tournaments and
the necessary work, and that this would be communicated and communicated
and communicated. Hoping that this will be enough to garner a higher
volunteer rate from the members. At this time, I will pass this
issue of member participation back to the executive.
As Bryan H. was absent from this meeting a conversation on this
subject developed and we agreed to send out the list of work parties
for John L. to put on the website.
Also, maybe a one ticket per work party and pick one at the AGM:
Motion by Dan S. and 2nd by Richard K. passed (we will set it up
at a later date)
· Safety Committee – Richard K. – Been around
the course and doing it again on
Sunday (8:30 a.m.). Then will be cutting trails and get targets
ready for the field course soon
· Promoting more memberships – Richard K. – we
are going to cruise for awhile
getting new members as we have as many as we can handle right now
· Region Indoor Shoot – Eric W. – still nothing
from the FCA
· Canadian 3D – Bryan H. - Looking at the FCA rulebook,
we do not have adequate facilities to host this tournament. I have
not yet spoken to anyone regarding different interpretations of
the rules below.
o Requirements include:
§ 3.3.2 Format - The Canadian National 3D Outdoor Championships
will be comprised of four (4) courses of twenty (20) 3D targets
for a total of eighty N(80) targets or three (3) courses –
one of twenty six (26) and two of twenty seven (27) targets.
§ 3.3.5.1 Practice areas outside of the Championship courses
will be open for practice on all four days of the competition.
§ 3.3.5.2 Practice is not allowed on any part of the 3D courses
set out for competition.
§ 3.3.5.3 The practice areas will include a measured distance
target range and a 3D practice area.
§ 3.3.6.2 Outdoor facilities should include both 3D and marked
butt practice areas, four complete 3D courses, on site camping,
and parking.
§ 3.3.6.5 Spectator viewing areas should be considered for
a portion of the 3D courses and the Grand Prix Shoot-off. The Grand
Prix Shoot Off could take place inside an arena.
· New Years Party – Dawn P. – a lot of fun was
had by all
· Gravel for driveway – Rick D. – hold off until
spring in case of lack of monies
being what they are.
· Lights for outside range – Sean L. – cables
are very expensive so we will need
more quotes. Need to get estimates and see what we can handle then
· Emergency phone – Rick D. – it comes from Telus
and we have to have a business phone that costs us $50.00 per month.
We are going to search out a better deal
6. New Business:
1. On December 31st, Peter Wilson and Mike stopped by the club to
evaluate our grounds for possible Search and Rescue training this
spring (see Roger W). I showed them around our property and they
felt that there was great potential, both inside and outside for
2 different courses. Their time frame is April / May, so I suggested
April would be better so as not to conflict with the June shoot.
They will be in touch. They did mention that meals would be required,
and that if we were interested in providing the catering, there
would be compensation. Depending on the course that is run, they
would need between 5 and 8 meals. (substantial breakfast, light
lunch, hearty dinner) They would need to know if we are interested
in the catering, otherwise they will have to make other arrangements.
We need to know how many people will be in attendance. They will
have to cater this themselves we just do not have the manpower.
We need an official proposal done.
2. Changing Meeting Night to Wednesday’s while the Mail Match
is on.
Motion by Dan S. and 2nd by Bruce P. passed (next meeting is February
3rd, 2010)
7. Director’s Report

seeing what the trails look like. A work party might have
to happen will send it to Dawn P. to put out to our
members. Please feel free to donate anything you can or

t-shirts one could be used for this event. We need to find

Summary
Started off January with the NewYear’s day shoot, lots of
people showed up and we had a great time shooting the animals indoors.
Followed by the Mail Match, several of our members medalled in this
tournament: Ryan Hetschko, Bruce Peters, Carlee Howard,myself, Janice
Creed, Roger Walker and Rick Dudman.
The January shoot had to be postponed to February on account of
the snow. You will have to fill me in on this one as I was cruising.
We had a great work party just before the June Hell Hole Shoot,
working on the lay ofthe land, cleaning up the grounds, burning
and making of the portable targets for the field.
The Hell Hole was a great shoot: I had many people comment on
how much they enjoyed shooting it, the lay out, the food and the
addition of the food and rest stop at the bottom. We had many prizes
and brought in about $5,500.
In August we held the Greg Durward memorial shoot and again got
lots of good feed back,we were able to send $1,200.00 to the Cancer
Society in honour of Greg and have purchased a tree to be planted
on the grounds in his honour.
The remainder of August was dedicated to cleaning up the club
house, fixing the shooting wall, painting the walls and floor of
the indoor range and floor of the club house, putting up the new
cupboards and cleaning out the equipment room.
We started selling the Cowichan Bowman Wear. So far we have sold
about $500.00 worth.
Come and see me if you are interested.
In September our Seniors shot the BC Seniors competion, the winners
were:
Janice Creed Gold
Dan Stewart Gold
Roger Walker Silver
Eric Walker Silver
Followed by the Open House to see if we could get some more members
Membership this year is up by 70 members
We are still waiting for the roof to be done.
The Harvest Moon Shoot was held in October we lucked out with
the weather, all reported on having a great shoot, the club made
about $750.00
We have included crossbow shooters into our club this year and
have included them in the safety rules, which will be posted for
the target and field range soon.
The JOP group is growing fast, we have about 19 shooters all moving
on up in levels.
We have the JOP Indoors in February, and the JOP Outdoors in June.
Four of our JOP’s just shot the qualifier for the BC Winter
Games to be held in March 2010 in Terrace.
And onto bigger and better things in the next year.
5. Vice-President’s Report:
As was mentioned in the Presidents report the club did a lot of
work around the club house and property as well as hosting various
events and shoots. And I also agree with the president’s report
that the help and support was great from the club members. I also
noticed that the communications between the members was the best
I have ever seen and a real effort is being made by all the directors
and members to keep the improved communications.
Thank You, Sincerely, Richard Kennett Vice President Cowichan Bowmen
