How about Benefit For Kids ?? Maybe they could use them...... Or they could be auctioned to provide funds for Outdoor Wishes for some very special kids........

I agree with Big Bear,,,, I am sure there are kids, or parents where things are tight, that would love to free bow

Benefit4Kids for sure.
Also, contact John Vassos ([email protected]) of Camp Cuervo.
John is doing a lot with Wounded Warriors setting up ranges and competitions for the troops. I know that he would put any donated equipment to very good use for a great cause.
Check out John's Facebook page to see what he has going on.

They ended up at the Graying archery club, they gave them to archers that were just starting out shooting, I hope it hooked some of them.

We live in Wisconsin and no longer hunt. We have two compound bows, arrows, cases, quivers, etc. and would like to donate them to someone/group who could use them. Does anyone have any idea who we should contact?

Thanks for Jack Benson for contacting me. I run Camp Cuervo Archery Club for the past 12 years and we are presently building two 30 target 3-d archery ranges in Pellston Michigan and in Louisville Kentucky. It has been a long time since I have been on the Bowsite and most of those from the days of OIF will remember the many post on archery ranges we built in Iraq and Afghanistan for our troops to use. The shift has changed and since 2012 CCAC has been volunteering at Fort Knox Kentucky Warrior Transition Battlion doing a shoot we call The Cuervo Army Strong Challenge each year. The work continues and we are now registered as a 501(c3)non profit listed as Working Hands Healing Hearts DBA Camp Cuervo ARchery Club. Our website is www.campcuervo.org and we have a group page on FB. We will be in Pellston Michigan doing construction on Brave Hearts Estates (Operation Injured Soldiers) 3-d range to be used by disabled veterans and their families the weekend of May 6,2016 if this is something you would be interested in. For God and Country! Thanks to all who have supported us in the past.
