In the vast, green wilderness of Washington State, nestled between the snowy peaks of Mount Rainier and the shimmering waters of Puget Sound, there exists a group of children unlike any other. They're called the Archery Avengers, a quirky gang of kids who shoot arrows not just for fun, but for glory. You see, these aren't your ordinary Washingtonian kids who would spend their days playing video games or watching the rain pour from the comfort of their homes. No, these are the kids who could hit a bullseye blindfolded, in their sleep, standing on one leg while being tickled by a raccoon. Yes, they're that good. The leader of this motley crew is Benny "Bullseye" Barkerson. Benny, with his thick glasses and wild mop of hair, might look like your typical fourteen-year-old. But give him a bow and arrow, and he becomes Benny the Brave, the most daring archer this side of the Mississippi. There's also Sally "Swift Shot" Swift, who could shoot an apple off your head without messing a single strand of your hair, and Tommy "Two-Toes" Thompson, who despite being born with just two toes on his right foot, could perform acrobatics while shooting arrows that would make even a circus performer envious. Their adventures in the lush, green forests of Washington State become the stuff of legends, filled with laughter, camaraderie, and of course, a whole lot of archery. So, if you ever find yourself wandering through the woods of WA, look out for flying arrows and listen for the echoes of laughter. You've just entered the realm of the Archery Avengers.
