As you all know, Dennis La Varenne passed away earlier in the
year, as an avid archer for over 35 years had amassed a collection
of bows, arrows and other assorted equipment. Jeff
Chalacombe is now in possession of Dennis' old equipment.
Jeff was kind enough to donate some bows to Eddie and myself on
behalf of dennis to giveaway to members of Ozbow.
The first bow Eddie and I gave away was a kids longbow that we
were too gave away to a young aspiring archer at the Gladstone
Longbow and Recurve Muster. We decided the lucky recipient of
the longbow would be Caitlyn whyatt, who helped out during the
weekend and showed a keen interest in archery.
More giveaways and stuff coming up so keep an eye out for
those and congratulations to Caitlyn on her new bow!
