Mount Vernon Archery Club members continue to participate in archery events year around.
August 24-25, Hitaga Archery near Central City hosted the Iowa 2013 Rhinehart 100 3D
Shoot drawing about 500 archers from Iowa and around the nation. Hitaga Archery uses the
profit from the shoot to help support the infrastructure at Camp Hitaga and also sponsor less
fortunate kids so that they can attend camp in the summer.
Mount Vernon archers and families ran concessions for Hitaga and earned support for their
club. Mount Vernon Archers also competed in the shoot aiming at Rhinehart targets of animals
from North American and African environments. There was also a novelty collection of targets
simulating targets, such as, aliens and dinosaurs. Special archery games and head to head
competitions included a milk jug shoot, the iron forest, shooting flying targets and the iron buck.
Gage Lochner was the North American Range Youth Champion. There were 50 challenging
targets in each range with a variety of distances and type of targets.
