The City Council discussion on Archery Range that was scheduled for December 15 has been POSTPONED! It looks like we’ll go to council in February. We’ll let everyone know as soon as the date is confirmed.
This is not a bad thing. Everyone is busy at this time of year, so a February date is better to get archers/supporters to the Council meeting. We have more time to prepare. Watch the PRA Facebook page and the Pasadena Archery site/Facebook page for updates and info on how you can help!
If you live in Pasadena, please call, write or email your councilperson, AND in districts where the seat is up for election (1, 2, 4 6), you can do the same with all the candidates.
You can also contact the mayoral candidates and tell them that the archery range is a campaign issue, that the Mayor represents all of Pasadena and not just District 6, that the Lower Arroyo is YOUR park, too, and that you’re voting for the candidate you believe will serve the people of Pasadena, which includes protecting and preserving this historic range and its popular educational program. Thank you so MUCH!
We could add airguns … so we don’t have to drive up to the Angeles Range:

We can’t add airguns. Pasadena Municipal Code 9.76 is pretty clear on that. Discharging an air gun anywhere in the city that is not designated for such use is a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of not more than $500.00, or by imprisonment in the city jail for a period of not more than 6 months, or by both such fine and imprisonment. There is no way the City Council would ever approve the use of air guns anywhere near the Arroyo.
