TVA Christmas Charity Funshoot
Today we held the annual Christmas funshoot at the club including the usual hilarities such as sabotage, winning team raffles and attempting to shoot as many arrows as possible whilst claiming to only have shot three!

A gallery to the pictures is available here, if you have any more pictures then please e-mail them to admin@trentvalleyarchers.co.uk

A big thanks to all who shot, provided prizes, helped set up and run the day (including a heater being brought along); and a very Merry Christmas to all! In total the raffle and shoot-off amassed around £117 for the Donna Louise Trust, we hope this extra cash can help all at the Trust have a great Christmas this year and continue to carry out their excellent work into the future. We hope to carry on supporting you soon!

There is a considerable amount more to read about, and a few pictures too, so click here to view the full article.
