The Wake Forest Police Department operates it's own firing range. Located behind the Flaherty Park Community Center, 1226 N. White St., the firing range is surrounded by a security fence that is locked at all times, unless in use by police department personnel. The firing range is NOT open to the public.
The range is utilized by the department for required yearly qualifications on all weapons used by officers. The department's SWAT team also uses the range for a variety of tactical training sessions. Several in-service training schools such as patrol rifle school and high risk vehicle stops are also scheduled at the firing range. The police department will make every effort to ensure that dates the firing range is being utilized are posted, but dates and times are subject to change without notice.
