Openings

Recently, local youth organizations had their own ribbon cutting at the Outdoor Adventure Center of South Dakota, part of a national network of archery facilities connected through the Easton Sports Development Foundation, one of the center's national donors.

The new National Field Archery Association (NFAA) Foundation Museum at the NFAA Easton Yankton Archery Center in Yankton, SD was officially dedicated Aug. 3 in conjunction with the NFAA Outdoor National Championships and the IFAA World Field Championships.

A partnership between the Commission, the City of Lincoln, the Easton Sports Development Foundation and other partners, the $2.8 million, 17,700-square-foot Nebraska Game and Parks Commission Outdoor Education Center features a 25-meter, 32-lane archery range that will be open to the public five days a week, 50 weeks a year.

The ribbon was shot - not cut - by four Olympic medallists at a VIP opening and luncheon on April 11th, declaring the new Easton Archery Centre in Salt Lake City officially open.

The Easton Archery Center, which opened last week in Salt Lake City, Utah, is first of its kind in many ways. Not only does it have shooting ranges, but there is advanced technology testing, meeting and classroom space, a gym, a sports medical room and a workshop.

On Tuesday, April 15, Easton Foundations will open a new state-of-the-art archery training center in Salt Lake City, providing the region with one of the world's premier archery training venues.

Easton Foundations will host an open house for the new Easton Salt Lake Archery Center to the general public Saturday, April 12. Olympic archers will shoot demonstrations, food will be served, and the ranges will be open and equipment will be available for visitors to try archery.
