Archers from 6 to 16 years old camped out during the annual Archery Challenge at Lake Capote and took part in the traditional recurve archery event Aug. 3 and 4. Nine years of competition have been supported by the Southern Ute Police Department and the SunUte Community Center to help keep Southern Ute youth on target.
