Turkish Archery Workshop

There will be a workshop about Turkish Archery this monday in Gazi University. We, a bunch of Turkish archery enthusiast, will be presenting some articles and perform an archery demonstration. We also have a friend from Poland, Mr CIESZYNSKI, who will talk about Turkish sword Yatagan. He will also participate the demonstration.

The Announcement page is in Turkish, so I will try to translate at least the titles.
