Colorado: Shooting Area Clean-Up Day Scheduled on Two National Forests

The Front Range Shooting Sports Partners (FRSSP) has scheduled Saturday, April 25th to clean up two popular shooting sites.  One is an informal area on the Pawnee National Grassland in Weld County and the other is the South Rampart Shooting Range on the Pike National Forest west of Colorado Springs.  The FRSSP is a coalition that was formed several years ago to address the needs of recreational shooters along the Front Range.  Partners in the coalition are the Colorado Division of Wildlife, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Firearms Coalition of Colorado, Safari Club International, Colorado Backcountry Hunters and Anglers and 11 other state and private organizations.   The clean up project is the first of its kind scheduled by the FRSSP.  For further information on the Pawnee clean up, please contact [email protected] or call 970-295-6693 and for the Rampart Range clean up, please contact Richard Gandolf at [email protected] or call 719-597-2722.  For more details you may also go to http://wildlife.state.co.us/hunting/shootingsports/shootingsportspartners  If you shoot on federal lands in the state and are within reasonable driving distance of these sites, you would be making a tremendous contribution to the future of recreational shooting on federal lands if you could volunteer your time on April 25th at either site.  If you can volunteer, we would appreciate you wearing a ball cap, jacket or other item that recognizes you as a NRA member.
