C & B Archery

2/4/13 - By Gretchen Allison

If you didn’t get enough of the Hunger Games and are dying to bring out your inner Katniss, head over to C & B Archery in Hicksville for the latest craze in sports.  While you may need Mapquest to find the place, since it’s tucked away in an office complex on Commercial Street, once you do you will find a staff that is eager to please and one that provides excellent instruction.

Despite your child’s insistence on their needing all of the gear, the staff at C&B Archery will tell you otherwise, insisting it is not necessary when they are just starting out.  I can’t remember the last time someone discouraged me from buying things on a whim.  I have a drum set and an Optimist sailboat to prove it!

First-time shooters will be given a lesson, bow rental, range time and target for the mere cost of $25.50! Once you have taken the mandatory first-time lesson, you may stop in any time during business hours for (drum roll please) 50 cents; the cost of a target.

This is a skill you can learn at any age and they encourage you and your child to try it together.  They are open every day except Monday and hold leagues on Saturday and Sunday mornings for children ages 7-17 years old.  The rate for the 13 week session is $12.50 per week, making the grand total $162.50 for the entire course ending with a tournament, pizza party, trophies and gift certificates.

C&B Archery also host birthday parties!  The package price is $329.00 for up to 12 children and includes 2 slices of pizza per child, soda or juice, 20-30 minute instruction, 1 hour range time, and 30-40 minutes in party room.  Paper goods, balloons and a free 1 hour range time certificate is given to each child.  With a rate like this and all of the trimmings included, the odds will truly be in your favor if you surprise your child with a party here!  www.cbarchery.net 516-933-BOWS (2697).
