Move Being Made To Form New Archery Club At Otakiri
All possible assistance was promised by the captain, Mr R. Hunter, at a meeting of the Whakatane Archery Club to the Otakiri Returned Services’ Association in their effort to start an archery club at Otakiri. A meeting is to be held at Otakiri on Wednesday night when the scheme will be put before the people of the district. Mr Hunter said that archery was growing in New Zealand and now that there was an association to control it in the Bay of Plenty the more local clubs there were the better for the future of the sport. Besides competition among Bay teams, there were always postal shoots to enter, thus bringing distant clubs together and binding friendships which seem to be the keynote of archery clubs throughout New Zealand.
