Explore Archery Explore Archery is a versatile education activity program tailored for youth and families that are interested in being introduced to the sport or looking for an activity that includes everyone. Archery is introduced through participation in individual and team-building activities that require fundamental skills, a competitive edge and a bit of creativity – not based on athletic abilities or the capability to shoot a perfect score. Equipment Included. Adults are required to remain with children under the age of 14. Held at the Georgia Southern University Shooting Sports Education Center. 912-478-7732.
