Cacapon 3-D Archery Range Opens for the Season 

“The 3-D range is a great addition to our wobble clay shotgun sport range which opened in 2007,” said Brad Reed, Assistant Park Superintendent at Cacapon. “Our shotgun wobble clays range has been very popular with the local community and our overnight park guests,” Reed said. “The 3-D archery course has attracted new visitors to Cacapon and provides our regular customers another great recreational opportunity.”

Cacapon Resort is one of the West Virginia state park system’s traditional parks teetering on 21^st Century trends. “It’s a park where eras collide says Reed. “On one hand, our lodge and cabins reflect the 1950s when families used state parks for reunions, vacation, and to visit. Today we balance our past and history, which includes Civilian Conservation Corps structures in almost pristine condition and still in use, with current trends and updates.” Some of those updates include wireless access, accessibility, and computerized reservations.

“Funny thing, I’ve always heard ‘the more things change, the more they stay the same’ and at Cacapon, people continue to find this park a destination to relax, get outside, and play,” said Reed. “It’s all about the getting away to someplace comfortable.”

The additions of the wobble clay and 3-D archery, as well expanded activities programs and nature center, hiking, horseback riding, and golf opportunities, invite renewed interest in a grand West Virginia state park. 

The 3-D archery range is open seven days a week by reservation. It features 21 3-D foam targets featuring “game animals” native to West Virginia. The targets differ in styles and sizes from ground hogs all the way to the massive black bear. Shooting distances range from 15 to 40 yards. Customers must bring their own archery equipment.  For more information or for reservations, call Cacapon Resort State Park at 304-258-1022 or visit online www.cacaponresort.com.
