Sports
|
The Barta Field is home to the Aquehonga Sports
area. This sports complex has all the elements to keep the sports-minded
athlete busy. Activities range from challenging target archery,
rifle and skeet shooting to the grueling obstacle course (which
requires staff supervision). The well groomed soccer, softball and
volleyball fields boast to be the finest in TMR. The area staff
provides sports equipment or you may bring your own personal gear.
Our Sports area is also home to our Mountain Biking Program.
