The Sherburne Wildlife Management Area (WMA) Shooting Range will close Friday (May 31) at sunset until further notice in anticipation of the opening of the Morganza Spillway on Sunday (June 2), the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries announced. This closure is needed to allow LDWF to evacuate range equipment to higher ground.
 
The range will remain closed until waters recede from the area and necessary repairs made.
 
The range is located at 1132 Sherburne Road in Lottie, three miles south of U.S. Highway 190 on Louisiana Highway 975. For more information, call 337-566-2251.
