The Kennesaw Archery Club, located in Acworth GA, is less than 40 miles northwest of Atlanta in Cobb County. Offering youth, adult, and family memberships, there are currently 92 members who have access to the outdoor ranges 365 days a year. Two archers: Bill Millican and Shawn Lovell, have been members of the club since it was founded in 1988. The Kennesaw Archery Club's most recent accomplishment? They helped launch Cobb County's first 4-H Archery Team in January 2017!

Outdoor range sessions/lessons are held every Saturday from April through October, and indoor range sessions/lessons are every Sunday from November through May. The Kennesaw Archery Club hosts three tournaments per year: one indoor tournament and two field tournaments.
In addition to the in-person lessons at their facilities, the KAC website features a comprehensive online learning center: http://www.kennesawarchery.org/learning.html. Video topics include, but aren't limited to, choosing an arrow spine, range rules and etiquette, and selecting beginner equipment.
