Woodsboro Bowmen Seek New Grounds After Half Century Home
The Woodsboro Bowmen, founded in the early 1950s, lose their wooded ridge home west of Md 194 near Woodsboro. The headquarters meeting site and archery range are gone, ending a long era and beacon for local archery. Their origins tie obscurely to the Tuscarora Archers in the county.

Archery Club Roots in Woodsboro Bowmen History
Jim Shankle recalls the sudden idea for archery clubs sparked at the old airport. Skeets Bruchey’s ad led to the formation of Tuscarora Archers, then Woodsboro Bowmen, who built a public, insured range on land owned by LeGore and Barrick Lime Companies. The club, now led by Jim Shankle, faces displacement as landowners plan new uses, ending an era and a cherished local landmark.
