to the city's Treasure Bay Golf and Tennis
facility to play on a real golf course with
SNAG equipment.
" We're trying to make it safe and affordable to introduce a new field, " he
says. " That's the future of the game. "

Lovelace says that around 3,500 people have participated in archery programs at the center itself. Currently,
100 children are in archery classes and
Lovelace estimates every two months the
center is generating 20 new archers who
are moving into higher-level classes or
even competition. The center also hosts
archery tournaments and recently held a
hunting expo that drew 2,500 participants.
" They can shoot year-round with no
weather restraints. It definitely keeps
the sport going all year, " she says. " Not
everybody knows about archery or

understands the sport. It's really blossoming in the area. "
According to Lovelace, archery is also
a good inclusive sport for people with disabilities. " Anybody can do archery. That's
what makes the sport so unique. The child
that might not be able to jump really high or
the child who might not be able to run very
fast can still come and excel at the sport
of archery. That's what makes the sport so
much fun; it's a sport for everyone. " 
Elizabeth Beard is the Managing

Editor of Parks & Recreation.

Indoor Archery
In Newberry, Florida, a partnership between the Easton Foundation and the city
Parks and Recreation department has
resulted in an unusual pilot facility-part
recreation center and part indoor archery range.
" It's kind of an unique situation-a private non-profit and a public government
agency came together to build a facility, " explains Brandie Lovelace, director
of operations for the Easton Newberry
Sports Complex, which opened in October 2009.
In addition to the archery classes,
league nights, and open shoots for adults
and children offered at the complex, the
Easton Foundation also brings archery
to 43 schools in surrounding counties as
part of its nationwide Olympic Archery
in the Schools program. The school kits
provided through Easton grants include
items such as Olympic-style recurve
bows, nets for indoor gym use, targets,
release aids, and arrows. The six-week
programs organized by local parks and
recreation departments begin with teacher training.
