The Archery Hall of Fame and Museum, Inc., will hold its 24th Induction
Ceremony on Friday, September 22nd, in the White River Room, adjacent
to the Wonders of Wildlife Museum in Springfield, Missouri.
The
Springfield site will become the permanent home for the hall.
Although construction has not been completed, a temporary hall will be
in place for visitors to wrap themselves in the history of archery and
bowhunting.
With a desire to do all inductions moving forward in
Springfield, this year's event will induct Rollin Bohning as a member
of the class of 2004. Bohning was a chemical engineer whose
product creations influenced the entire industry.

arrow.
