 Mike
Alexander
President
Mike has been a Flint Bowmen
member for over 17 years. He's been our President
since 2005. In his seventeen+
years as a member, Mike has also been Bowhunter Coordinator,
Vice President, and Rules Coordinator. Mike fell in love
with the Flint Bowmen
Club when a neighbor brought him
here for the first time to shoot
someplace other than his back yard. He
was hooked immediately. Mike and his three sons spent
many hours shooting together as the boys
grew up around Flint Bowmen.
Mike founded the Flint Bowmen’s Kids’
League which has taught well over
a thousand kids to shoot a bow. Mike is a very active
hunter as well as a novice target
shooter and a guy who just wants to keep Flint Bowmen a fun
place to shoot a bow. None of Mike’s dedication to Flint
Bowmen would be possible without the incredible support of
his amazing wife, Maggie. |

Kim Coles
Treasurer
Kim has been a member of Flint Bowmen since 2001. She
and her husband, Rod, have two wonderful children, Josh and
Crystal. In 2001 Josh started shooting on the kids league
and shortly after that, the whole family had bows and were
shooting together at local and state tournaments.
Kim was hooked on archery when she shot a
“robin-hood” in the first week of shooting her bow. She has
since won many local awards and a few state awards. She also
enjoys shooting on the 3-D leagues and shoots. Even though
her kids have moved on to JOAD, she still enjoys running the
kids league and working with JOAD.
She has been our treasurer since 2002 and serves on many
committees. With all her hard work and dedication, she was
voted a life member of Flint Bowmen in 2008.
Kim has a great family who supports her, and Rod is always
at her side and works right along with her (if he can
keep up)! Flint Bowmen has given Kim and her family a
great opportunity to meet so many people and they’ve become
great friends with many of them.

 Lynn
Lovejoy
Bowhunter Coordinator
Lynn has been a member of the club since
2005. He enjoys shooting the 3-D leagues and Winter outdoor
league. The Fall Shoot is always Lynn’s favorite.
He enjoys coming up with themed
targets and novelty shots.
When not in his tree stand, deer
hunting, he enjoys hunting grouse
and woodcock with his German Shorthair, Kaiser. If time
permits (and the weather isn’t too hot) he likes to get some
fishing in. If he’s not outdoors shooting the Winter
League you can probably find him
ice fishing.
He can be found around the club working with Jason Woodby on
the the outdoor 3-D courses or in
the pole barn cutting cardboard silhouette targets. When not
participating in the outdoors he enjoys spending time with
his wife, Jamie.

 Jason
Woodby
Bowhunter Coordinator
I started shooting archery back in 1980 and
I was 10 years old I was
shooting on the kids league at Lincoln
Bowmen and I
still have my trophy from the
"PICK A BRAT" tournament. My first bow was a
Bear mini-mag
purchased from Springer Archery
and was fitted by Mr. Springer himself.
This was back in the day when the shop was visited by
people like Fred Bear and Ted Nugent. I started at
Flint Bowmen
on the winter league of 2003 where I
took first place narrowly
beating Mike Marrs. (Scary how I
can remember that like yesterday but I
cant remember yesterday) I became a
Bowhunter
Coordinator back in 2006 wanting to make a difference
in the leagues and shoots by making them more challenging
and fun with different and interesting shots. Although
this has, on occasion given the President
bouts of indigestion, the overall
response has been positive by the members and general public
that come out and shoot the course. I
enjoy working with Lynn (the other coordinator) and the
board to make Flint Bowmen a fun
place for all to come and practice and shoot

 Mike
Sanders
Editor
Mike has been
a member of Flint Bowmen since early to mid 1990s. He has
served on the board as Special Coordinator and now as the
Editor. Every time you check out our awesome newsletter
(especially the email version) you're looking at Mike's
handiwork. Over the years, Mike has brought his children
and, as you can see in this photo, now his grandchildren to
the club to enjoy Flint Bowmen's awesome family atmosphere.
Mike and his wife Meleia really enjoy the club and all of
the members. |

 Tom
Sanders
Webmaster
(Not a board position)
Tom has been a member of Flint Bowmen Club since some time
in the early 1990s (?). He and his brother Mike joined a
league and then attended a Fall Shoot. After that, it was
only a matter of time before they both became members.Tom has served on the board in the
past and now takes care of the website for the club. Tom is
probably best known at the club for being the original
recipient of the coveted "Hay Bale" Award. But that's a
completely different story all it's own.
"I've been
away from hunting, and the club, for a number of years now
and I'm pretty excited to get back into it. I've missed it
more than I ever would have imagined. In the past, my wife
Charlene and I have made some great memories and some
incredible friendships through the Flint Bowmen Club. I'm
anxious to share this whole "club experience" with my
teenage daughters. It's just good to be back"
