Inflatable Archery Range

Mobile Archery Range Reservation Site
Picture
Green Mountain Council has mobile archery ranges available to showcase Scouting at recruitment events and for other uses.

We've got some really exciting resources available to serve as a new member recruitment tool while helping increase Scouting's visibility and image. Archery is one of our most popular camp activities and these commercial, specially branded inflatable ranges can give festival goers a taste of Scouting. They use safe foam tipped arrows with beginner-friendly bows and accessories.

WHO CAN USE THE RANGES?
Scout units/Districts are able to rent the mobile archery units out for Scouting recruitments and events.

FEES
  • Approved Scouting recruitment use: $0
  • Approved Scouting Event: $100/Day

HOW TO RESERVE A MOBILE ARCHERY RANGE
  1. Gain approval from your district BSA staff representative for approval for recruitment event usage – when reserving, this contact should be listed as the secondary contact.
  2. Go through the required Mobile archery range training - found in the Documents section of this page
  3. Register for your date and pay for the archery range online - buttons on the top and bottom of this page
  4. Pick up and return the range within the required timeframes listed on the registration page

OUR SUGGESTIONS FOR WHERE AND HOW TO USE THE MOBILE ARCHERY RANGES

These are our recommendations:
  • Major Event/Festival/Fair – These are designed to be used for large events with a focus on showcasing Scouting and new member recruitment. Use must go beyond a being unit activity to extend their useful life and enable them to make the most impact.
  • Volunteers – A minimum of two volunteers are needed at all times to run the range, with one designated as the Range Safety Officer, who will be in charge and required to take the online AND in-person training/orientation.
  • Pick-Up and Return – The ranges are stored at the Water Service Center, so must be picked up and returned to there during business hours. It is important that the person picking up and returning the equipment has a vehicle large enough to transport all items listed above that are required for each archery range (for example, a truck, SUV, or van). In addition, the person must be physically able to move the items to and from the building, as it is not guaranteed there will extra support onsite to assist.
  • Electricity – The inflatable backdrop requires a steady stream of air from a blower. A long extension cord is provided, but if your proposed location does not have power available, you will need to secure a portable, quiet generator.
