National Rifle Association donates funding to DNR for shooting ranges

The National Rifle Association recently presented a $75,000 check to the S.C. Department of Natural Resources for the construction of three shooting ranges in the state.

Herb Lanford, National Rifle Association board member, presented the $75,000 check to the S.C. Department of Natural Resources (DNR) at the Sept. 24 meeting of the S.C. Natural Resources Board in Columbia.

"The NRA and its many tens of thousands of members across South Carolina are proud to make this contribution to assist the South Carolina DNR's program to develop public range facilities," Lanford said. "This effort exemplifies the Department's distinguished record of service to our state and its citizens. It is a pleasure to partner with South Carolina DNR and participate in this program, which will benefit present and future generations. The Department's commitment to providing safe places to shoot, like its many other remarkable achievements, sets an example of leadership and service for agencies across the nation."
