New Shooting Club on Blue Swamp Road in Milton
We are advised that the Blue Swamp Road section of Milton would, under a plan proposed by the Cropsey family, become the site of a shooting facility with a live-duck-hunting and gun-dog training. This use would be part of a members only shooting club with paid memberships.
A meeting to discuss the prposal will be held at Litchfield Planning and Zoning on February 4, 2008.

The White Oak Gun Club presently has 15 paying members. Their goal is to eventually have over 50 members. Annual dues are $3000 to belong plus a hefty initiation fee. Extensive logging is taking place on the property north of Blue Swamp Rd., perhaps with the idea of expanding the shooting activity in this area. Nick Boyden is listed as the Managing Partner of the club which suggests this is some kind of commercial venture in a residential zone.
