Been a busy weekend at Moray Archery hosting stage 3 of the Scottish tour. With around 104 archers taking part over the weekend.
As well as the archers taking part there were family and supporters of the archers and the also all of those behind the scenes who make the event happen. This takes the figure to well over 150 people.
A big thank you to all our volunteers who gave their time over the weekend to make sure this was a successful event. These include the tournament organisers team, judging team, field party and the catering team, thank you to you all.
We hope all the archers who took part enjoyed themselves and congratulations to those who came away with medals.

Absolutely furious with this as it puts the archery club into another phase of uncertainty and possible closure.
Here is hoping Scottish government quickly process the appeal and throws it out.

LEITHS HAVE LODGED AN APPEAL
On a weekend when we should all be coming together and enjoying the world cup and with only 8 days to go till the deadline for appeals – Leiths have dropped a bombshell and snuck in an appeal on the Birnie Quarry and Concrete Works Planning application

Despite the proposal being recommended for rejection by the Moray Council Planning Officer Report on very sound planning grounds

Despite the proposal being overwhelming rejected by Councillors on the Planning Committee

Despite over 800 individual objections and two community councils objecting to the proposal

Despite over 2 years of stress and worry for a community which was just 8 days away from it all coming to an end

Despite Leiths recently being awarded planning permission for a new sand and gravel quarry at Potterton in Aberdeenshire

This company has dropped a bombshell and lodged an appeal with the Scottish Government- showing just how much they respect the views of the community, the decisions of our democratically elected representatives and the policy that protects our green spaces
So dust off your signs and sharpen your pens – because here we go again.

Not something we see often at the archery Range a very distinct double rainbow.
Most of archers are hiding under the shelter from the rain taking it all in.

Notice the bright primary rainbow and the secondary outer rainbow which has the colours the other way round. And in between is the dark Alexander’s belt.

A big thank you to all the members who helped out at Scottish archery’s inter area competition, which we hosted at the weekend.
The field party.
Those who contributed to the Raffle.
Photographers.
And of course the kitchen party keeping. everyone fed over the two days.

This was the biggest competition that Moray Archery have ever hosted to date with around 80 people in attendance.
I think we showcased our club and what we can do to some of the best archers in Scotland.
Hopefully they will have enjoyed themselves and come up north again to shoot with us.

Praise has to also be given to the following people as without them the event would not have take place.
Fiona & Curtis Hirst and Malcolm Alexander for running the event.
All of the Judges
And the area team managers.

And Congratulations to the eastern archery team who won the event by 0.1 of a point.

More photos of the event to follow.
