A Rifle Range was available at Olentangy Park for many years. Sometimes, it was part of the Shooting Gallery. The standalone Rifle Range in the Midway was opened in 1929. It was located between the Joy Mill and the Mysterious Sensation and was sold to the Haenlein Brothers' Zoo Amusement Par[1] (also called Scioto Ranch Park) when the park sold its assets in 1938.
