MT PETRIE BOWMEN - Press Release

Mount Petrie Bowmen are happy to announce the development of a new Indoor Archery Facility at their Belmont grounds.

The Queensland Department of Sport and Recreation has officially advised Mount Petrie Bowmen that it will provide funding to support the development of a new 30 metre by 30 metre by 4 metres high (at the eaves) Indoor Archery Facility at their grounds adjacent to their clubhouse. The cost of construction will be shared between Mount Petrie Bowmen and the Department of Sport and Recreation.

Construction is  expected to begin in mid February. The some of the existing facilities are to be demolished and the club's indoor and coaching activities have to be temporarily relocated onto the main range during the construction period. It is expected to be completed so that competitors in the National Archery Championships in May will be able to use the facilities for before and after shoot activities during the tournament.
