Accomodation availability?
Unfortunately we are unable to help in this area.
As the games is hosting 60 sports there will be around 9,000 people converging on Geelong for the week long event so vacancies are becoming harder to source, especially at the budget end of the market.

We suggest you do a Google search for "Accomodation in Geelong" which will bring up some accomodation booking sites
or
as recommended by the Masters Games site, contact the Geelong Tourism centre on
1800 620 888

Acknowledgements:
June 2012

Geelong Archers would like to acknowledge the support of
Councillor Barbara Abley,
councillor in the Brownbill Ward within the
City of Greater Geelong and the city's 
Councillor Community Grants Program.
A grant of $500 was received through this program and has
been added to funds raised through a BBQ fundraiser and
used for the purchase of two new compound bows and
accessories to replace
equipment stolen from
the club during a burglary early in December 2011.
Bows such as this are vital to us being able to teach
interested pindividuals and groups within our community
the skills of this facinating sport.
Thankyou Councillor Abley and The City of Greater Geelong,
your support of 
Geelong Archers is much appreciated.

July 2012

Geelong Archers would like to acknowledge the support of the
Victorian State Government's
Department of Planning and Community Development.
Through them we were able to receive a financial grant under their
Emergency Grant, Sport and Recreation Equipment scheme.
These funds were put towards replacing archery equipment which
was stolen from the club just prior to Christmas 2011.
Without this equipment we would be unable to bring archery to community
groups and individuals.
