RANDOLPH, Utah.  November 4, 2015.  County Commissioner Tom Weston met with Darin Pugmire, Garden City Council,  and Richard Droesbeck, Utah State Parks,  to get something in place for Droesbeck to get funding for the range.  

The agreement will be that Garden City will design and manage the facility, the county will maintain the road and parking lot and dust control.  Cox said that funding needs to be discussed. There is grant money but it needs to be matched. 

“It is a great project, “ Weston said. There will be a long range shooting range for rifles and shotguns.  Mitch Poulsen, Bear Lake Regional Commission,  said that they can attract shooting competitions throughout the summer and fall with this kind of a range.  The  county is also considering an archery range near Swan Creek.
