Archery Safety Reminder
With hunting season underway, the Weyauwega Police Department strongly encourages residents to use established archery ranges for bow and crossbow practice. Residential yards can leave little room for error, and a missed arrow can put neighbors, children and pets at risk.
Always know your target and what lies beyond it. Use an appropriate target and backstop, and never shoot where an arrow could enter neighboring property, sidewalks or roads.
City ordinances prohibit shooting arrows or crossbow bolts from or across a highway, or within 50 feet of the center of a road. They also prohibit reckless conduct that endangers another person with a bow and arrow. City ordinances prohibit hunting within city limits.
Meeting a distance requirement does not make a shooting location safe. If you cannot safely contain every shot, do not shoot there.
