This week, Santa Clara County Parks installed a new memorial bench, between our Lower 14 field course targets 2 and 3. The bench is dedicated to the memory of long-time Black Mountain Bowmen member Bob DeLong, who passed away last February.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our first USAT-style Club Shoot! It was an honor to welcome archers from all over the Bay Area to our "little" Sunday shoot.

Thanks especially to all those who pitched in to help us make it happen... It wouldn't have been possible without you!
