It was hot and sticky and humid...and of course--it was fair week.
The kids had two competitions throughout the week.
Bowmanship was first--where they needed to know parts of the bow and show proper form etc.
Both scored well.
The next competition that week was Field Archery--a long shoot.
There were 12 rounds of 3 arrows each and it went in heats--so it was actually 24 rounds per grouping. Bean went first..and when they were almost done--up to the 10th round it started to DOWNPOUR!!!
Our tent actually blew over and everyone took refuge in the barns for probably a good hour until the rain let up enough for us to resume the competition. Everyone was pretty soaked.
But, overall in her class--Bean came in 3rd.
MJ's class was next up to shoot.
He came in 2nd in his class.
So, they both did well.
I didn't stick around for awards, because it would have been another couple of hours.
And they got rained on again!!
But Mike was there with two of the boys and they had some fun later on at the demolition derby too. We didn't do much at the fair this year other than these competitions--the weather was not cooperative.
That about wrapped it up.
