Persona
Giovanni dell'Arco joins us from twelfth century Bergamo, at the time an independent commune in what is now the Lombardy region of northern Italy. As his name suggests, Giovanni was an archer and a participant in the Bergamascan contingent of the Lombard League that successfully countered the Holy Roman Emperor, Frederick I, in his attempt to spread his influence over the Italian communes.
On Target Online
In 1995, Giovanni dell'Arco put together a quarterly archery magazine produced by the archers of An Tir for the archers of An Tir. The goal of On Target was to bring the An Tir archery community together through words and pictures; to unite the archers across the great expanse of our Kingdom through education and entertainment.
On Target's first issue debuted at An Tir's Twelfth Night Coronation, 1996, A.S. XXX, and all 75 copies of the 12-page magazine were sold that first afternoon. A second issue was published before On Target was put on hold for time and financial constraints.
On 4 December 1996, Giovanni dell'Arco put On Target on the Web, hoping to fulfill the magazine's goal more effectively than it could have done in print.
Although Giovanni dell'Arco wrote some of the articles, On Target's foundation was article submissions. The call was put out and An Tir's archers responded by getting involved and by moving us with their poetry, dazzling us with their artwork, asking questions, and educating us with trivia and tips that helped us become better archers in the Society. They proved that On Target was not just a magazine, it was our magazine.
On Target Online became the official An Tir Royal Archer Web site under several An Tir Royal Archers and the official Keeper of the InterKingdom Archery Competition (IKAC) Web site during Giovanni dell'Arco's tenure (1998-2001) until it was retired.
