National Target Championships, Easton JOAD Nationals Head to Hamilton, Ohio in 2012

Visitors to the park in July of 2009 and 2010 witnessed the happy embraces, the high fives, the struggles and the triumphs that are part and parcel of this national championship event. The "thwack" of arrows hitting bales, the symphony of hundreds of clickers and releases going off together, and the beep of the timing system will echo through Joyce Park once again, as National Target Championships return to Hamilton from June 27 to July 1, 2012.

Next year, however, the event will evolve to include the Easton JOAD Nationals, the youth championship event that determines the JOAD Grand National Champions. According to USA Archery CEO Denise Parker, "This should be a great event combining our Youth and Adult national events. I expect this to be the event of the year and an opportunity to celebrate our sport. The timing also allows us to celebrate the send off of our team headed to the Olympic Games in London."
