Randall A Peach of a Town! Randall, located between I-35 and US Highway 69, is proud of its Norwegian and Danish Heritage (there are a few Swedes too!). We have a brand new tots playground and outdoor tweens and teens exercise equipment area and lots of ideas to improve recreation and the quality of life in Randall. Newcomers are encouraged to join any one of the four local organizations and clubs to help pitch right in.
