14 th Annual 3D Archery Expo Returns to St. Anthony

The St. Anthony Conservation Club will be having its 14th Annual 3D Archery Expo on Saturday, March 29. The event will be held at 6280 S. Club Road in St. Anthony and is open to all ages. Come for food, archery events, and a silent auction tailor made for the golfer in the family.

Most activities will be open from 8 am to 3:30 pm Eastern, and 3D registration will run from 8 am to 1 pm. Parking is free, and there is no fee to visit the vendor booths and displays. Food and drinks will be available for purchase all day, including breakfast sandwiches, burgers, pulled pork, sandwiches, and tenderloins.

Most archery equipment is welcome. There will be a National Archery in the Schools 3D shooter category using N.A.S.P. bows. Shooters will be able to register to win Deer Mineral packages as well as other door prizes and giveaways. Bow and raffle tickets, and over $10,000 in prizes will be available to win throughout the day.

Some of the day’s many archery events include a 30-target 3D shoot and the chance to win a bow in competition shooting with a Sasquatch 3D target. Shooters will be competing for a prize target worth over $5000. For non-archers, outdoor vendors, product displays, and truck and UTV displays will be on site throughout the event. A DNR T.I.P. trailer will also have local conservation officers available to answer any questions.

The silent auction will include hunting and outdoor themed items, in addition to rounds of golf at local courses. Bidding will close at 3 pm. Special guests include pro staff from Bowhunt or Die, who will be on site for a special meet and greet. You can also bring your deer mounts along to get a free score from official Pope and Young scorers.
