Bring 'em back BHS!

Brookdale Park has a fine "range"

 

     From the Essex County website:
 
Archery


Brookdale Park’s outdoor archery field is leased by Essex County to The Bloomfield Archers. The club, founded in the 1930s, houses equipment, including target butts and stands, in a building adjacent to the field for the exclusive use of members. From April through October, the club hosts weekly “Sunday Shoots” that are open to all archers. Distances are adjusted for youth and novice archers. All archers pay an entry fee of $10. Registration on the field is required one-half hour prior to shoot.


The archery field is the official site for The Gold Cup, the New Jersey Outdoor State Archery Championships. An estimated 200 archers compete at the annual event. Actress Geena Davis was at the 1999 Gold Cup and world-class record holders come to Bloomfield to compete every year. For Bloomfield Archers membership info, please visit Bloomfield Archers.
