Here's an article out of the Everett Herald that discusses a possible designated outdoor shooting area being considered: HeraldNet.com - Local news: County considers creating outdoor shooting range Wish us luck!
Now if only Skagit could get one. Rifle range at Greens is closed which was the only one close to me. Good luck!!
Update here: Snohomish County to request land for gun range The ball is now in DNR's court - they have to decide whether to transfer the land to Snohomish County. Those with an interest may wish to lobby the DNR Board - meeting info, agendas and contact info available at that link. "Antis" are already coming out - see Herald commentary and letters. (There's also been a pro-range commentary and some letters in support.) Nothing is happening soon, other than the DNR transfer decision. As the article notes, there is no identified funding, and there would likely be SEPA review. Still, nice to see a County Council unanimously support something like this.
...and another Herald article. HeraldNet.com - Local news: Neighbors fight plan for gun range near Sultan Mushroom pickers. :huh:
