gregaz Report post Posted June 5, 2013 Anyone have any information as to when the archery range portion of the shooting range behind the Pima county fairgrounds will open? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigorange Report post Posted June 6, 2013 I keep hearing (from both staff at the rifle range and other hunters) that it's basically finished but waiting on operational budget for them to be able to open it and staff it. Same for the shotgun range across the street. I think the same person told me their fiscal year starts July 1 so would hopefully have the budget then, but not necessarily opening then. Maybe it will be open sometime before early archery season... Looking forward to it opening myself...PSE and TMP just aren't very convenient to us SE Tucson folks.

CWpredator Report post Posted June 6, 2013 I work for Pima County NRPR and trust me don't trust what you hear for an opening date. The department drags their feet so slow on everything it makes molasses look fast. Right now the county department is in a spending freeze until the fiscal year ( July). There are still some minor things needing to be done out there (maybe a weeks worth of work) but we keep getting pulled off to go babysit Huckleberry's pet projects. Figure for late summer early fall for it opening judging by the way things are going in the county right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
