What started out as a berm for target shooting and an old farmhouse for Barton County Sheriff’s Office training has evolved into a multi-use site utilized by law enforcement agencies around the state. Barton County Sheriff Brian Bellendir gave an update on his department’s range and training facility northeast of Great Bend to the County Commission Monday morning. A year and a half in the making, he said the range and new classroom building are getting well used.
