Shreveport, Bossier City and Minden, Louisiana, have partnered with the National Guard at Camp Minden, Bossier Parish, Webster Parish and Caddo Parish, along with the City of Bossier City and Lieutenant Governor Billy Nunguesser and the Louisiana Office of Tourism, to host this incredible event.

The tournament, which is estimated to bring in around two thousand archers from forty nine states to compete and another fifteen hundred friends and family to the Shreveport/Bossier/Minden area from April 21 to April 24, 2022.
