BASF Indoor Range Improvements and Fees
9/23/2011 8:31:35 AM
BASF Indoor Range Improvements and Fee Update:

The BASF indoor archery range features 18 and 25 meters distances, space for 26 world archery shooting positions, air-conditioning and bright lighting.  Recently indoor restrooms have been added to the facility.  The range has ten BASF provided target matts.  Additional targets, sound systems, timers and other equipment can provide by user groups or the ASAA.

In the past event hosts paid $125 for a single day port a let rental.  Rental of two port a lets for two days with service is about $300.  A hand wash station is an additional cost.  Beginning January 2012, the facility rental is $75 for a five hour half day and $150 for a full day.   (BASF Letter)  http://www.azjoad.com/2011/2012-BASF-Indoor-Fees.pdf The per archer per day range use fee remains the same.

“Parents are much more willing to bring their children to archery programs that have air conditioning, comfortable seating and indoor plumbing. Indoor plumbing was the final hurdle for the BASF indoor facility to host top flight events.  Spectators, family, friends as well as archers and staff will also appreciate the improvements”  Bob Pian, Arizona State Archery Association.

All are welcome to reserve to use the range for all target archery program needs.  Contact the Ben Avery Shooting Facility to register as a BASF user group or collaborate with an existing BASF target archery user group such as Desert Sky Archers and the Arizona JOAD Association.
