Archery, Pups, and Turkey Trots: The Ultimate Combo for Fun!

Get ready for an action-packed November with archery, family runs, and a puppy story that melts hearts!

The excitement is soaring as the first Philippine University Archery League is set to kick off on November 23 at the Polytechnic University of the Philippines (PUP). Organized by the Federation of School Sports Association of the Philippines (FESSAP), this league not only aims to promote archery as a sport among universities but also to foster friendly competition among students. Aspiring archers from various universities will finally get a chance to showcase their skills, making this event a must-watch for archery enthusiasts and curious spectators alike!

But it doesn’t stop there! If you’re looking for a way to celebrate Thanksgiving with your loved ones, the 38th Annual YMCA Turkey Trot has got you covered. This year, the running event has introduced a ‘Run with your Pup’ option, encouraging everyone, including their furry friends, to join in on the fun. With three different runs available, participants of all fitness levels, from seasoned runners to leisurely walkers, can experience the joy of running as a family. So, lace up those sneakers, bring your pup, and trot your way into the holiday spirit!

And speaking of pups, let’s talk about a heartwarming story from a Pennsylvania shelter featuring Gordita, the adorable Australian shepherd. Known as a “girl’s girl,” Gordita prefers the company of women and tends to shy away from men. Her unique personality has made her a favorite among female staff and volunteers at the shelter. It just goes to show that every pup has their own story and preferences, reminding us that it’s always important to pair them with the right forever family!

So, whether you’re shooting arrows, running with your furry friend, or getting cozy with a four-legged companion, November is bursting with events that combine fun, fitness, and furry friendships. Remember, the right pup can bring boundless joy to your life—just ask Gordita! And for those interested in archery, it's not just about the bullseye; it’s a sport that hones focus, discipline, and patience—the perfect metaphor for life!
