State 3D

[Marcus]

When is this on? My dates say 30th and 31st of August, but that's a Friday and Saturday. Is that wrong?

[Steve B]

Marcus, my calendar says the 30 th August and the 1st of September , you are talking about those to be conducted by Whyndam Rebels I am guessing.

[Marcus]

Yeah I am. It appears I have a bug in my calendar software. Are there only 30 days in August?

[Bruce]

Marcus ,

I sent a pdf entry form to Luke last week .

Do you want me to send you one as well?

we will be shooting a 2 arrow round and 1/2 a one arrow round on Saturday. Sunday will be a 3 arrow round and the second half of the 1 arrow round .

[Marcus]

Geez, I hope their course is easier than mine or I won't make it!! No I'll be fine, will go to the club tomorrow night. Thanks for that.
No binos allowed huh?

Bruce, and Marcus,

The PDF entry form for the State 3D went up on the DVA notice board the day I got it :D

It's still hanging there now......and yes, 30th August and 1st September...

[Bruce]

thanks Luke .

Did it come through allright ?

I haven't tried sending many pdf files

But I think it is the easiest for both os to open ??

[Eberbachl]

Yep, thanks Bruce, came through just fine...probably is the best format :)

Thats the same weekend as the Sherbrooke Silver Cup (FITA FIELD)I believe. Thats a shame, I guess that will keep some people away. I'll be shooting the Silver Cup.

Its a pity these governing bodies and tournament organisers don't speak to eachother to try to work out a calendar that allows people to shoot both, but that brings up that hoary old chestnut again: co-operation between the different bodies. I don't think I want to go there! :-?

[Marcus]

Problem again with that Mike is that our AV calendar is pretty full, to get ABA to work around us or visa versa means nothing would get shot.
I thought that the Sherbrooke cup was the week prior. Rod has asked DVA to host a Target trial on Sep 1st. Now that would be a serious conflict.

<me getting on my soap box>

If we had one organisation governing archery in this country, we would only have one calendar and conflicts like the one mentioned would be far less likely to occur! :)

<me getting off my soap box>

HINT HINT.................

BTW Mike, I think Marcus is right, I'm sure the Sherbrooke Silver Cup is the week prior, but it is a good point nonetheless, conflicts like this do occur regularly.

And we are holding a State target trial on 1st September at DVA :wink:

Whilst at the recent national IFAA shoot , I was approached in my capacity as a branch controller with regard to syncronising calenders . the person in question made some relivant points but I was on my way to shoot and suggested he put something in writing to me for consideration . Well I am still waiting and unfortunately our calender hasbeen set for next year .


ABA members will find a copy attatched to the minutes of the last branch meeting that there rep will recieve , hopefully your rep will announce to the meeting in his report the calender for next year

The Sherbrooke Silver Cup is actually on the 24/25th August 2002. So it wont clash with the State 3D. We moved the event earlier in the year!

:D :D
