Archery in the Parks

Be your own action heroes! Why not go beyond video games—especially when kids love the challenge of archery? Aim for daring family adventure at an Archery in the Parks program. Designed especially for kids age eight or above, no experience is necessary to participate.

Hands-on instruction in shooting a bow and arrow, plus target practice.
All equipment provided.
No experience necessary.
Programs are led by certified instructors in a safe, supportive environment.
All programs are free, but a vehicle permit is required to enter all Minnesota state parks ($5/day or $25/year).
