Connoquenessing Valley Bowman

Connoquenessing Valley Bowman Connoquenessing Valley Bowman is an archery only club located in Fombell, PA. Connoquenessing Valley Bowman is an archery club located in Fombell, PA.

Sitting on many acres of beautiful Western Pennsylvania hardwoods, our club is conveniently located just a few miles away from Zelienople, Ellwood City, Beaver Falls, and Cranberry Township. Established in 1956, CVB has come a long way since its inception. The newly renovated facilities and 3D course have given the club a whole new look. With an active member base, there is always something to do

at CVB. During the winter months, we have a club wide indoor league where we invite all skill levels to shoot in teams against each others averages. Once spring rolls around, there is a heavy focus on 3D. CVB is a member of the Western PA 3D League and many of the members travel to other clubs to compete. We also host a number of 3D shoots on our own property throughout the spring, summer, and fall months. Please visit us at our next event or one of our monthly meetings.

Hello everyone,

Thanks to the fine folks who came for last night's workday, the course is now clear and ready for setup next Friday. Our additional work days on Sunday April 12 and Wednesday April 15 are cancelled. We will focus on Friday, April 17 for setting the course and any remaining clean up that might come up by then. Our first 3D shoot of the season will be Sunday, April 19.

Again, a huge thank you to those who came out last night! We hope to see everyone next weekend for our first 3D shoot of the season! Don't forget we'll be trying something new this year in place of the League shoots and we're looking forward to seeing everyone!
