Dear Archers!
For the third time in this century I have the honor to welcome you to the European Championships in Estonia. This time it will be an indoor event. Pärnu is a nice coastal town and it is possible to organize compact and convenient event both for the shooting and accommodation for EIAC 2012.
One of the key persons of the EBHC 2008 team compared organising such an event with running a marathon – when you have run two thirds of the course you think that you should never even have started running at all. Yet when you reach the finish line you feel proud and happy for the accomplishment despite the difficulties you endured during the course. We are wild enough to go knowingly for it again and most of the organising team has the experience of both EFAC 2003 and EBHC 2008.
Archery is an addictive sport and this „virus“ has well-spread all over Estonia during the past years. Thank you all in advance for the participation as this type of event gives necessary experience and new friends to all of us and gives an yet another boost to our development.
We are eagerly waiting you to shoot your best score yet in EIAC 2012 in Pärnu!
May the best archer win and welcome to Estonia!
Yours in archery
Andres Virkus
President of FAAE
