All Thursday night meetings begin at 6:30. Our pot-luck hour has restarted (post- Covid). It begins at 6:30 and the meeting follows at 7:30. The mid-month "round-table" will continue to be at 6:30 each month.
The Club is sponsoring a food drive again this year and will be accepting donations of non-perishable food items at the clubhouse on Collins Mills Road, West Gardiner on the following days between 9:00AM and 12:00PM:
Sat. April 1
Sat. April 15
Sat. April 22
Monetary donations can also be made at the clubhouse or at the West Gardiner Town Hall located at 318 Spears Corner Road. (Town Office hours are Mon-Fri
8AM to 1PM and Thursday evenings from 5PM to 8PM.)
Coincidentally, the range will be open to the public during those hours and a donation of food to the drive can get you "on the shooting line". (See additional info below)
The club is pleased to announce that we are, once again, sponsoring a “Lifetime License” for a lucky WGRG CLUB junior member or JOAD member. We will be choosing one winner in each of two categories:
1. age 5 and under
2. ages 6 through 15
The winner will choose either a Hunting or Fishing license.
The winner’s parents may elect to upgrade this to a combination hunting / fishing license by paying the difference in cost.
Applications are available at the club meetings.
The West Gardiner Rod & Gun Club range will be open to the public on the following dates from 9:00AM to 12:00PM.
