The archery range includes a covered shooting line, four archery targets, two benches, range signage and a backstop. Nicholas had tremendous community support and raised all necessary funds for the project. He was also able to donate additional funds for the Center to acquire new archery equipment. The Dyken Pond Center will make the range available to organized youth programs.
