Last week Clackamas County ap
proved a contract that would allow
the Sheri ffs Department to share the
Public Safety Training Center with
Clackamas Community College. The
Public Safety Training Center
(PSTC), located at 1270082nd Ave.,
was built by the college about two
and a half years ago to promote fire
arm safety.
Clackamas will receive $255,000
and money for utilities from the
Sheriff’s Department through the
contract. In return, Clackamas
County officers will be able to use
the shooting range for practice
and training. They also will teach
the law enforcement classes while
the college will teach the public
safety classes.
“We will be able to do what we do
best, and the Sheriff’s Department
will do what they do best,” said Pe
ter Angstadt, dean of college ser
vices. “We get a good partner.”

The contract is mutually benefi
cial. Clackamas receives needed
funds, and the Sheriff’s Department
gains more access to the state-of-
the-art facilities the PSTC offers,
within walking distance of the
Sheriff’s
North
Office.
The PSTC currently offers basic
and intermediate classes for hand
guns and rifles, defensive shotguns,
urban rifles, and the Sig-Sauer fam
ily of handguns. Seven highly quali
fied, on-site instructors teach the
classes that range from $39 to $179
in price.
The training center also boasts
one of the Northwest’s premier pub
lic shooting ranges. The shooting
deck, armory and viewing area are
clean, spacious and well lit. Behind
the scenes, technologically ad
vanced equipment and procedures
keep the range safe and efficient
Shooters must use range pro
vided clean fire cartridges made with
smokeless gunpowder, non-barium
primer, and copper-coated bullets
that minimize the amount of lead re
