The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was joined by the MTL FOREST Council, the Missouri Department of Conservation, Bass Pro Shop, and various community partners in celebrating the opening of a new, state-of-the-art archery park at Mark Twain Lake on Wednesday, May 31, 2018. Located at the Frank Russell Recreation Area in Ralls County, it features an archery range with target distances ranging from 10 to 80 yards, a three-station youth archery range, and a 15-station 3-D archery trail through the adjacent woods. This facility was made possible by a Corps of Engineers Handshake Partnership Grant, a MDC Community Archery Grant, financial and resource support from the MTL FOREST Council, and a tremendous amount of volunteer services provided by neighbors and community members to make this new amenity a reality at Mark Twain Lake.
