The Dewey Shooting Range located six miles north of Stevens Point, Wisconsin is just one of 24 areas managed by the Portage County Parks Department. This 319-acre area not only has a public shooting range but also a public hunting area. The Shooting Range is adjacent to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources 6,000-acre Dewey Marsh.
The range was developed in 1986. It provides a safe facility for firearms target practice and field archery.
