Coudersport Man Honored by PSP

Coudersport resident Stanley R. Goodwin has received a Letter of Commendation from Pennsylvania State Police for his efforts and community service, particularly involving state police.

Goodwin has donated countless hours of his time, as well as materials and heavy equipment in the design and construction of a shooting range behind the Troop F Coudersport station, according to a news release sent by Cpl. Michael Murray. This was at a time in which the private shooting range used during the spring and fall firearms qualifications by members of Potter, Tioga and Cameron County law enforcement was being closed. After a search for a sutibale replacement range was unsuccessful, Goodwin offered to design and build a shooting range.

The range is used state police from Coudersport, Mansfield and Emporium and is, or has been, used by every municipal police department in Potter County, as well as member of the state Game Commission, Fish & Boat Commission, DCNR and other law enforcement. It is used for practice and qualifications.

Goodwin's efforts have resulted in a savings to taxpayers of the state and Potter County, realized through the cost of construction and design, as well as continuing travel costs.
