This was the 6th year for the Kingston Archery Team and the 2nd year being awarded the Friends of the NRA Grant.
Coach Applegate and Coach Thebeau wrote for this grant back in October 2024 after assessing their program's needs for the 2025-2026 year. They are excited to have the opportunity to continue to provide the Archery Program at NO COST to the Kingston K-14 students. They are only able to do this with the assistance from grants such as this one. They would like to extend a huge thank you for the continued support from Friends of the NRA and the local community!
