South Nation Archery Supply/Club celebrated 40 years serving the needs of archers and bowhunters in eastern Ontario, western Quebec and northern New York State on Saturday, August 26, 2023,
Thank you to all of you who stopped by, or sent messages on our Facebook page.
Our SNAC advanced classes took on the annual March Nutrition Month Challenge to chart healthy eating for 1 week. 99% of our students participated – well done!
Rian Chicoine remains our nutrition champion for another year, with Pam Leclair only 10 points behind him. Congratulations, Rian and all our participants.
Remember that a balanced diet with good hydration and fewer “hollow calories” can help archery performance as well as overall health. Combined with good sleeping habits, you can feel better and have more energy. Take the nutrition challenge on your own – Kathleen Millar can send you a score sheet upon request.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and following Ontario government guidelines, we are suspending birthday party lessons until further notice.
The only exemption to this are parties which comprise of one family only in attendance.
Please contact Kathleen Millar for more details: info@southnationarchery.com

In preparation for the National Compound Archery Team’s participation in The Netherlands in June, Kathleen Millar (women’s coach) and Sean McKenty (head coach) lead a national team training camp hosted by Sean and Fiona in the Windsor area on May 13-14, 2019.
All women team members will be present for the registered tournaments and simulations. For the men’s team, everyone except for Brendan von Richter from Victoria will be present.
The men’s team of Brendan, Robbie Nott and Austin Taylor reprises the team that Kathleen led during the 2018 World Cup at Salt Lake City. The women’s team sees the return of Fiona McClean and Fiona Maude, along with Katie Roth. It will be a solid, experienced team.
There was no dominant archer this year in the advanced classes. And though we had a lot of arrows pass through the flame, only the following archers put it out without touching the candle itself. One candle each for:
Compound archers
Emma McMillan, Hannah Rousseau, Bill Mackey and Hester Grodde.
Recurve archers
Pam Leclair, Bob Kerr and Luke Seldenthuis
Congratulations to all students!
Kathleen Millar and SNAC hosted the small, but important national team training camp June 25-28. The National Para Mixed Team, comprising of Karen Van Nest and Kevin Evans, trained and simulated competition in preparation for a Paralympic World Ranking Event in the Czech Republic starting on June 30th.
As part of the pre-event camp, national Team Leader Duncan Crawford (PEI) attended as well. Other team support members were able to attend also.
In order to simulate match play for Karen and Kevin, Kaity Horlock, Hannah Rousseau, Alexandra Paquette and Robin Horlock all participated in the Round Robin and Super-team eliminations. Thank you for volunteering! To thank our volunteers, Larry grilled a great smorgasbord of delights to go with all the salads.
Good luck to our Canadian Paralympic Mixed Team in the Czech Republic!
Canadians need to be prepared and here in Eastern Ontario, the threat to people and pets is growing. Stay informed!
