- Clothes for working in outside (dress for the weather)

Background: There have been rumblings of a public 3-D archery range in Shelby County, Illinois. In early 2022, ILBHA began conversations with Lake Shelbyville US Army Corps of Engineers about the dream of building a public 3-D archery trail, the first BHA sponsored 3-D archery trail in the nation. Those conversations have turned into reality, and a site has been selected and approved. In early 2023, ILBHA, Illinois S3DA, and Lake Shelbyville Youth Ambassadors joined efforts and the project has been 1 of 7 USACE projects across the nation to receive partnership grant funding, funding which will primarily help to make sure ALL public landowners have access. The trail will be a conservation experience with not only 3-D targets but information along the way about wildlife, conservation, and sponsors who help to make it all happen.
