On July 15 Range Deputy Kelly and Chief Deputy NewMyer presented Kamden Beason with a brand new helmet. Kamden won this as part of an initiative for the youth of Custer County to attend OHV Safety classes. Throughout the year Deputy Kelly offers several free OHV classes for the County. Would you like to win a helmet? Every year a minor student is selected at random to win a helmet, value of up to $500. Keep an eye out for the opportunity to attend future classes! Or give us a call to schedule a class for a date that works for you.
