TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach is sponsoring a children’s archery tournament next month in MacLennan Park near the governor’s residence in Topeka.

Kobach’s office is holding Ad Astra Archery Tournament with the state Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism on April 25. The registration fee is $10 and participants can register online at www.sos.ks.gov/archery .

The competition is open to students in kindergarten through the 12th grade. Each participant will receive a T-shirt and a medal.

The event is named after the 20-foot-tall bronze statue of a Kanza Indian named “Ad Astra” on top of the Kansas Capitol dome.

Organizers also asked in a new release for donations for scholarships for young Kansas archers interested in attending the National Archery in the Schools championship this fall in Louisville, Kentucky.
