Evansville, IN – July 1, 2023 – The North Region Target Championship, also known as “Glow in the Cornfield,” “Duel in the Cornfield,” and “Battle for the Mason-Dixon” will be held at Goebel Soccer Complex in Evansville, Indiana June 30 – July 2.  This three-day archery event kicks off with the ‘Glow in the Cornfield’ event, a non-competitive shoot played under the illumination of the field lights after dark.  The following two-day Star FITA tournament will feature 72 different archer events with disciplines including Barebow, Basic Compound, Compound, Fixed Pins, Recurve, and others.  75 archers from across the Midwest will compete.

“We are excited to welcome this unique event back to Evansville for the third year!  With the success of the first Glow in the Cornfield in 2022, the organizers have once again given the archers the opportunity to shoot under the lights, which is something new for most of the participants,” said Tim Fulton, General Manager with the Evansville Sports Complex.
