MEDIA RELEASE

The Hawai‘i County Department of Parks and Recreation announces it will close the Hilo Trap and Skeet Range temporarily starting Monday, August 1, so the facility may undergo necessary accessibility upgrades.

The range is expected to remain closed through September and be reopened in early October 2016. A follow-up announcement will be issued before the range is reopened.

The Department of Parks and Recreation apologizes for any inconvenience the temporary closure may cause and thanks range users for their patience and understanding while it works to upgrade the facility.
