GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes DISCUSSION The Santiago Park Archers Club is a non-profit organization and an official charter club of the National Field Archery Association. The club meets at the Santiago Archery Range every Tuesday evening from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Additionally, the club hosts two tournaments each year, attracting several other archery clubs from across the United States. Established in the 1970s, the Santiago Park Archers Club has been an active user of the Santiago Park Archery Range for over 40 years. Throughout this time, they have consistently held permits to access the range and have demonstrated a commitment to maintaining the facility, often leaving it in better condition than they found it. Additionally, the Archers Club has organized clean-up efforts in the Santiago Park area with the involvement of their members. Recently, the Santiago Park Archers Club engaged in discussions with the Parks, Recreation, and Community Services Agency (PRCSA) to establish a long-term facilities use agreement. This agreement will enhance the City's protections by requiring additional insurance from the Club, while the City will waive fees for two extra tournaments hosted by the Club. This collaboration will simplify administrative processes by reducing the need for multiple rental permits.
