Buford Boy Scout to represent United State on World Archery Team.

Buford Boy Scout to represent United State on World Archery Team.

Cam Pyles, Troop 511, competed at the World Indoor Trials in Newberry Florida for a chance to represent the U.S.A. at the World Indoor Archery Championship in Nimes France, February 25th through March 2nd. 16 year old Cam competed against archers that were 2-4 years older them him. Despite the age difference he was able to earn a spot on the three man U.S.A. Team.

Cam has been training the last three years at Archery Learning Center in Snellville Ga. to be the best in the sport of Archery. Now the scout is in need of both moral and financial support to see his dream of winning a gold metal come true. The family will be responsible for their traveling expenses and their Coach George Ryals has set up a donation page to help raise funds. You can make donations at gofundme.com.
