Volunteers needed for the 2011 Canada
Winter Games.
Archery Competition
Your organizing committee needs
volunteers to help run the best Canadian Winters Games archery
event possible. We
need people to be scorers, tabulators and leader board
operators. You do not need to know anything about these
positions but some knowledge of the sport would be a help. We
will be holding training sessions for those who require it so
you will have the necessary information about the position you
might be asked to fill. Step up and support you association in
an endeavor which will bring archery into the public eye where
archery should be, so more people can become aware of the
sport of archery. You do not have to a great shooter or even
in the sport, you might be a parent of an archer show them you
want to help in any way you can.
Any person who thinks they might enjoy
assisting in any way to run a first class event can get in
touch with any member of the organizing committee or contact

Archers Association of Nova
Scotia
The Association (AANS) was formed in 1967
and is the provincial sport organization governing archery in
all its forms in the province of Nova Scotia. Purpose: To
perpetuate, foster and direct the practice of archery in all
its forms through: encouraging membership, adopting,
interpreting, and endorsing the rules for practicing. Today's
sport of archery has roots that are thousands of years old and
in many cultures around the world. In olden days the bow was
firstly a tool for harvesting game for food and secondly a
weapon of war that resulted in the winning of many battles. As
the bow became impracticable as a weapon, archery became a
sport enjoyed by the rich, usually Lords and Kings. In some
cultures, the bow is still used today as a tool for harvesting
food. The sport continues to grow in popularity and is now
active in over 100 countries in the world!! Due to the
popularity of the sport, archers can now compete in events
such as the Olympics, the World Championships, and many other
international, national and provincial events, including 3-D
archery. AANS would like to welcome you to our new website.
Look around and enjoy.
