GILLETTE — The state wants to hear from communities about why they should be the ones to host a proposed shooting complex. It also wants to hear how those communities think the facility should be managed.
The State Shooting Complex Oversight Task Force met in Cody recently to go over the timeline of the selection process, which will take place in 2024.
“We want the local groups to have skin in the game,” said Rep. Art Washut, R-Casper, who co-chairs the task force with Sen. Larry Hicks, R-Baggs.
Hicks said there are “no preconceived notions” of how this facility would be run or what state agencies would be involved. Rather than the state telling communities what it wants, Hicks said the task force wants to hear from communities about what they believe is the best way to run the facility.
