Past Club Officers
The enduring legacy of our club is not written in the arrows we’ve lost, but in the tireless spirit of the individuals who have stood behind the line to guide us. Since 1950, the survival and growth of our organization have rested on the shoulders of dedicated volunteers who traded their personal range time for the stewardship of the sport. These officers have navigated decades of change with a singular focus: ensuring that our strings remain taut and the traditions of archery remain vibrant for the next generation. This page serves as a tribute to their hard work, their sacrifice of time, and the unwavering dedication that has kept our archery community’s aim true for over seventy-five years.

| 2003 | Dave Proctor, Executive Vice-President Mark Lohr, Field Vice-President Kevin Reedy, Hunting Vice-President Ann Boyd, Executive State Secretary & Treasurer Clinton Western, Recording Secretary Paul Vogel, Field Governor Cay McManus, NFAA Director Al Baughman, NBEF Director Irene Stocksdale, Publicity Director During the last part of 2003, VBA completed the NFAA’s Compliance Affidavit form and mailed it to our Councilman as directed. Bruce Cull, President of NFAA, had taken a position on three issues as follows: that we must furnish NFAA with a complete mailing list of all VBA members; that NFAA be permitted to directly bill VBA members for both State and National dues; and that non-NFAA members would not be permitted to shoot in VBA’s State tournaments even as a non-competing guest. In view of this position by NFAA, President Seltzer, with approval by club Directors at a regularly scheduled meeting, wrote a letter that accompanied the Compliance Affidavit in which he stated that VBA did not agree with NFAA’s position on these issues. The end result was that President Cull accepted a Compliance Affidavit from the Virginia Field Archery Association to represent NFAA members in Virginia. VBA was never charged with non-compliance (our Compliance Affidavit was approved by our NFAA Councilman and NFAA accepted the fee that accompanied it–later refunded) and consequently was never given an opportunity to defend itself or perhaps change its position. December 31, 2003, ended VBA’s affiliation with the National Field Archery Association. |
