Marksmanship Park Planned For Florence

/in , , /by

Florence County Progress, the private sector of the Florence County Economic Development Partnership, is working with the county to repurpose 500 acres of the county’s former landfill on Paper Mill Road to build a marksmanship park.

Plans are being drawn to recreate the world-renowned Civilian Marksmanship Program Park in Talladega, Alabama. It would accommodate thousands for firearm training and competitions.

“We are trying to recreate a Talladega in Florence,” said Jill Heiden Lewis, chairman of Progress. “It’s a perfect fit for Florence County Progress.”
