The archery club the « Compagnie d’Arc de Morangis » opens the gates its archery range.
Since the beginning of the year, the archers have been practicing on this rehabilitated archery range. ECT created this facility by re-using excavated soil from construction sites in the Essonne département. This area covering nearly 10,000 m2 gives a fine 360° view, and allows for safe practice thanks to a safety dike which surrounds it. The flanks of the plateau are wooded, to recreate spaces for biodiversity.
« This sport is addictive », explains Aurélie Carpentier, an archer and a volunteer at the club. The club is open to young people from 9 upwards.
