Calder School has announced it will be starting an archery program thanks to the World of Whitetail's generous donation of archery equipment.
Rick Stadnek delivered the school's equipment on Friday, Nov. 16 to a very excited group of students. The package, worth approximately $4,500, contains everything necessary to start the program.
In anticipation of the arrival of the archery equipment, the school had two staff members, two parents and one community member, who is also a substitute teacher, trained in the NASP program to enable them to teach the students.
Archery is a program that easily fits into any school physical education curriculum and teaches patience, focus, control and respect to name a few. Many schools are including archery in their curriculum.
The students and staff want to thank the World of Whitetail for providing a great start to a great program. The World of Whitetail is a non-profit, Saskatchewan, organization based out of Regina. WOW has good objectives for its organization including providing outdoor opportunities for youth and hunter education.
