Blackhawk 4-H Archery Club Open Enrollment for Recurve Archers, Nov. 2009, Pierce County, WA Area
Last chance for fall/winter archery enrollment.
The Blackhawk Archers 4-H program is full with the following exceptions:
We are looking specifically for individuals to fill the Intermediate (grade 7 thru 8) and Senior (9th grade and up) vacancies in our recurve discipline. All age divisions are full for the compound bow discipline.
If you or someone you know has an interest in learning to become a skilled archer, we want to hear from you right away. Our open enrollment for the fall/winter is session closed, but we will make an exception so we can fill these vacant seats before the end of November.
Give us a call now and find out how you can be a part of the leading 4-H Archery project in Pierce County and Washington State. Did you know that in the 2009 tournament season, the Blackhawk Archers returned home with 12 of the 16 awards available at the Washington State 4-H Shooting Sport Championship?
Factoid ONE:
More than half of the team representing the Blackhawk Archers at the 2009 State Championship where in their first year of archery. They had less than 5 months of actual training and experience.
Factoid TWO:
The Blackhawk Archers 4-H project offers one of the most comprehensive and progressive learning experiences in the state.

TACOMA PUBLIC LIBRARY HelpNow Homework Tutoring Information
Tacoma Public Library helps Tacoma students excel with free online homework help and tutoring.
Your tenth-grader has questions about exponential decay functions for his Algebra class. It's been many years since you even thought about Algebra, let alone use it. Where can your child go for help? Online, to www.tacomapublioclibrart.org and HelpNow - a free live homework and tutoring service recently launched by the Tacoma Public Library's
Tacoma Public Library's new HelpNow (Homework Tutoring) program enables the library system to provide live online homework assistance in a broad range of subjects in English and Spanish for students in grades 3 through 12, free of charge (all one needs is a Tacoma Public Library card).
This tutoring program is an Internet-based service that provides library patrons with live, on-demand homework help, seven days a week, from 3:00 to 11:00 pm. Certified tutors are experienced in Math, Science, Social Studies, and English/Language Arts. If live, real-time assistance is not needed, students may also submit questions any time of the day or night, and emailed responses will arrive within 24 hours.
Math tutors assist with basic skills, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus, while Science tutors are versed in biology, chemistry, physics, and earth-science subjects.
Social Studies tutors cover American history, world history, and political science. English/Language arts instructors provide help with writing, reading comprehension, grammar, and vocabulary skills, as well as help in English literature.
Tutors are also able to assist with Advanced Placement (AP) subjects and introductory college courses The program includes a 24-hour writing lab, which allows students to submit papers to trained writing instructors online at any time; students receive feedback within 24 hours.
Writing experts evaluate the submitted paper and provide constructive comments with the aim of helping students become better writers.
Besides homework help, the homework tutoring program offers a Skills Building section in which students may receive additional exercises to help them master the concepts being taught in their homework lessons. Skills-building lessons involve one-to-one sessions with live instructors. These tutors utilize a library of field-tested, state-aligned lessons, including age-appropriate content, reading passages, simulated test questions, and worksheets to help students master key academic areas.
All tutors are required to have a four-year college degree, and undergo extensive background and reference checks. They are also subject to a rigorous selection and training process, multiple screening interviews, and skills testing. Ongoing monitoring of online sessions ensures security and instructional quality.
In addition to HelpNow, students can also access an array of testing and education resources through the Library's online Testing and Education Reference Center.
Students taking a college entrance exam (like the SAT) or licensing exam, searching for a college or grad school, or financial aid can find free online help through the new resource center database. Students can take online practice tests and download and review test prep eBooks to further their education goals. The online resource center provides students and adult learners with the tools they need to take their studying and careers to the next level. With the Testing & Education Reference Center, library patrons have access to one online education resource to help them make informed decisions about their future. There are also Career Tools including Career Assessments, a Resume Builder, and Careers Library
Students may access these new library resources from any computer – whether at home, school, or at the library – by going to the library’s website at www.tacomapubliclibrary.org.

Exposed Seminar: Internet, Tech and Social Networking Savvy for Parents of Teens
| |
 Academy Northwest
an affiliate of Family Academy
|
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Family Bulletin
Oct 1, 2009
You don't know what you don't know
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| Dear Maggie,
In 2007, one of Academy NW's most promising grads who had earned a full ride college scholarship committed suicide 6 months after graduation due to on-line gambling debt. Recently, another young man who had always demonstrated excellent character and strong spirtual growth admitted to his parents his on-line pornography addiction. A young lady who had been homeschooled her whole life was totally in love with a man 7 years older whom she had never met. I could give many stories, even from diligent parents who didn't know what was going on in their student's hidden life. These parents probably wish they had attended the EXPOSED seminar.
You don't know what you don't know. The Internet and social networking can be a dragon that slays and burns this generation or we can train and equip them to arm themselves from the dangers while using the technology to enrich faith and relationships and build character.
If you haven't signed up for the EXPOSED seminar Oct 10, you will miss out on learning what you don't know and the best approaches for your kids and the dragons they will experience on the Internet and through social networking:
 Gaming and gambling addictions
Pornography
Virtual (and dangerous) relationships
On-line bullying
Brian Aaby, a mentor to youth, youth pastors, and parents with youthmark.com has figured out how to master the dragon.
Too far to drive, too much to pay? Many people drive much further and pay much more to hear their favorite band or watch their favorite sports team. And that is just entertainment. This is an investment into your children! Be pro-active and don't miss this opportunity.
Since this is not only for Academy Northwest families, invite your friends too! Early registration discount ends Oct 3. Use the link below to forward this on to friends and family who care about this next generation.
For details and to register go to www.familyacademy.org or call 800.877.4586 |

Shakespeare’s A Mid Summer Nights Dream & Dancing Under the Stars Update, Olympia, WA AREA
For Clarification purposes the Upcoming Mid Summer Night's Dream Play
and Dancing Under the Stars at Monarch Sculpture Garden
is not a 4-H event.
This is a Friends of EDUCATS Theatrical Company production
- not all the actors ( families) are members of EDUCATS

If you would like to come between 5:00 and 6:00 you can picnic with the actors before the show.
Over 20 of our very talented and dedicated youth=2 0have spent part of their summer working on learning lines, blocking, costuming, creating sets and staging this magical play for your enjoyment.. We hope you will come out to encourage and support this fine group of young thespians.
Royalty, star crossed lovers, woodland fairies, a talking wall, a queen falling in love with a donkey, and even a play with in the play make this one of the favorite and most performed of the bards comedic works. By the end of the play three couples will be wed, but parental objection, deception, magic and even being lost in the wood can not stop true love from being eternally knit.
Admission: donation of food for the food bank or a bike for Alaffia GACE Bicycles for Education project.
Please bring your own blankets or chairs for seating and and join us for a whimsical and entertaining evening..
Directions: I-5 South past Olympia ,Take Exit 99, turn east on 93rd Ave. S.E. , 3.8 miles to 3rd stop sign: turn south on Old Hwy 99 , 2.3 miles: turn east on Waldrick Road S.E. , 5 miles to railroad tracks, ,0.7 miles to Butterfly Tree, Coming from Yelm, take a right on Manke it turns into Military Road. Turn right at Waldrick Road after you cross the railroad tracks park will be on left. 1-5 North take Exit 88 (507 into Tenino past Speedway) Go through Tenino toward Yelm , Take Military Road/McIntosh L ake Road left, Left on Waldrick after crossing the river , park is on left. Parking will be on both sides of the road in mowed fields for info call Deann 507-2607 info on garden at
http://www.scattercreek.com/~monarchpark/

As always plenty of swing and line dances but we may throw in a waltz or two and if we can find one a period piece too..

Admission $1 per person or $3 per family . We would also like to encourage each family to bring a dessert -finger foods like cookies, brownies, tarts and items we do not need plates or utensils for please -your choice homemade or store bought. Punch will be provided. Info call Helen 455-9684, Meg 754-2497, Sydney or Scott 507-2607,
please share this post with others who may enjoy joining us and if some one can post on CHoSS (actually able to open on phone application the other day, though couldn't reply, pc still not showing up so must be my settings)
From Deann- In an attempt to compromise with families who had asked if they could have wine with their picnic dinners and those who do not drink, it was thought that those who brought alcohol could partake of their spirits in an enclosed area at the garden space. This area is 100+ feet from the dance area and 100+ yards from the play. Space was considered acceptable as is in an area that is completely separate from dance, in a area with wrought iron fence with distinct and separate entrances.
Alcohol was not to have been provided or served by EDUCATS. Was not to be sold -either by bottle or glass. There was not to have been a punch bowl or “bar” that was to have alcohol. Was a space designated for adults to use at their discretion with items they brought themselves.
Because of the following bruhaha... areas of concern and liability issues, I did not pursue applying for or secure the liquor license . The owner of establishment had offered the upper space and made mention of liquor permit - is something that is legal to do at the space. But after extensive emails and conversations was decided to have this be a dry event- please do not bring alcohol to event or you will have to put it back in your car.
ED UCATS homeschool group had no position promoting or restricting alcohol, it was assumed all parties would act responsibly and had agreed that any one discrediting or disrupting group could be asked to leave.
4-H strongly prohibits alcohol-
I am sorry for any confusion. EDUCATS is 4-H affiliated, but 4-H membership not a requirement for membership in EDUCATS. Not all EDUCATS events are 4-H. Of the 100+ families who are in EDUCATS approximately 25 families are in 4-H. The play that was conceived in April was originally to be 4-H, but as we have at least 5 families who did not sign 4-H paperwork and there was only one trained 4-H leader staying on site with 20 + students, was decided that play would not be 4-H, as was not following 4-H guidelines.
I apologize for any confusion regarding the group and it's 4-H affiliation.
Would like to stress this is a Friends of EDUCATS production and not 4-H sponsored.

Blackhawk 4-H Archers Open House for Anyone Possibly Interested in Joining, Puyallup, WA
At the 2009 Washington State Invitational the Pierce County Blackhawk 4-H Archers proved to be leaders not just in our district, but in state. Not only are the Blackhawks well educated, they are very skilled athletes. At the end of the grueling 12 hour long tournament in the hot, dry desert sun of Ephrata, WA the Blackhawk Archers returned home with 11 of the 18 possible awards.
While our educational project does not focus on “winning”, we do provide the tools, knowledge and skills that produce winners and more important, leaders. The Northwest District Tournament held at Skookum Archers in Puyallup has also generated a considerable amount of interest among local and regional youth and families who wanted to learn more about the Blackhawk 4-H Archers.
Now that word is getting out concerning our success at the State Championship the inquiries continue. In an effort to meet the demands and accommodate families in the Pierce County region, we will be holding an open house during our next practice session on Tuesday June 13th at the Skookum Archers facility in Puyallup.
This will be an opportunity for potential new members to hear a brief overview about the Blackhawk Archers 4-H project, watch a short exhibition tournament by our State Team and if time allows, get a free basic lesson and a chance to shoot a few arrows under the supervision of our trained instructors.
Our facility is small so everyone must RSVP via my e-mail by June 10th. The invitation is limited to interested parties only. More detail will be provided at the time they RSVP.

Marksmanship, American History and Heritage: The Appleseed Project: Castle Rock, Monroe and Vale, WA Areas
From: PacWest RWVA
The Revolutionary War Veterans Association is sponsoring "The
Appleseed Rifle Marksmanship and Heritage Project" this coming
weekend, April 18th and 19th in honor of American Patriots, the men
and women who stood together on this day at Lexington Green, The North
Bridge in Concord and along Battle Road back to Boston.
We will be sponsoring two day rifle marksmanship clinics in honor of
those men and women who knew that rifle ownership and marksmanship
were critical to a free nation. We will teach you how to build a
stable shooting position, how to find your natural point of aim and
shift it onto the target and then to execute the shot using "the six
steps to firing the shot".
Appleseed Shoots are family friendly, they are FREE to kids under 21,
FREE to Women and FREE to those in the Military (active, Reserve or
Guard).
We will also teach you about the importance of this day and how the
American Revolution did not start at Lexington Green, how within 12
hours of Paul Revere's alert there were 22,000 men under arms marching
towards Concord to protest the British Regulars attempt to consficate
Colonial firearms.
The dates and locations in your area:
Castle Rock, WA
When: April 18-19, June 13-14 , July 4-5, Sept 5-6, Oct. 31-Nov. 1,
Dec. 12-13, 2009
Monroe WA
When: April 25-26, May 23-24, June 27-28, July 25-26, August
22-23, September 26-27, 2009
Vale, OR
August 29 - 30, 2009
Also see our schedule at www.Appleseedinfo.org/as_schedule.htm for
other dates in Oregon and Washington, as well as national schedules,
then grab your rifle and join us on the firing line!
The RWVA is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the goal of
informing every American of the sacrifices of our Founding Generation
so that the ideals and spirit of the American Revolution will not die
out across this great land.
The Appleseed Project is the among the most rapidly growing rifle
safety and marksmanship program in America, with over 300 events
nationwide this year. You can join the thousands of Americans
nationwide that are learning how to safely and accurately shoot THEIR
rifles out to 500 yards.
So go to www.Appleseedinfo.org for more info.
