2015 Tiadaghton Sportsmen's Newsletter



Tiadaghton Sportsman’s Association
2015 Newsletter


We would like to remind all members about the Annual Running Deer Shoot and Gun Drawing which is always held the Sunday before Deer Season. The date is quickly approaching, and this year it will be held Sunday, November 29th.  As a reminder, if you purchased a membership in 2015, your name will go in for the Gun Drawing.  We give away one gun for every “even” 100 members.  Good Luck to all of you. Please be sure to read the attached Range Rules, and you are asked to observe all Rules.  Thank you.

We now have a “Blog Page” where Club information is posted when needed.  The address is http://tidaghton.blogspot.com  Please check out the page.

If you engage in Facebook, there is also a Facebook Group set up for “Tiadaghton Sportsmen’s Association”.  Please search for the group, send a friend request, and you will then be able to access information.

The clubhouse now has a telephone on site: 570-769-6089. This is to be used in case of emergencies.  There is not always someone on site to answer the phone.

Monthly Meetings are held the second Monday of each month at 7:00 pm at the Club House, except the months of January, February and March. These meetings are held in the basement of the Jersey Shore Elks. Weather permitting, the rest of the monthly meetings will be held at the Club House. The Officers encourage everyone to attend the meetings to offer ideas and information to improve the Club.

The Officers for the 2015 year are:

                        PRESIDENT                                                               Gary Ludwig

IBO/Archery Shoots:  The Club is looking for volunteer/volunteers to run the IBO/Archery Shoots.


Trap Shoots:  Is there any interest in holding Trap Shoots at the Club.  If you “are” interested, please contact Norm Ludwig at 570-865-6214.


****We are asking for members to volunteer to help with workdays and shoots.  We are currently at 300 plus members, and it takes a lot of work to maintain the grounds and the buildings that are used daily by members. Another note to all members:  PLEASE shoot at the rubber targets instead of the target frames. Remember!!!! This Club belongs to all of us, so please take a personal interest in maintaining the Clubhouse and its grounds!!!!!  If you see someone destroying property, please contact Don Reed at 570-772-9976.


Congratulations to the winners of the Gun Drawing 2014 that took place at the Running Deer Sunday Shoot held at Tiadaghton Sportsman’s Club.  The winners were:  Terry Cryder-Lock Haven, PA; Charles Harris Sr.- Mill Hall, PA; Dwayne Hoyer –Lebonan, PA

 Facilities include: Outdoor Pistol (25, 50, 100 yds), Outdoor Rifle (25,50,100,200,300 yds)
Hours of Operation: Dawn to Dusk
Range Access: Private


EXTRA, EXTRA:

The clubhouse grounds have been used this past year for other things too. A local Boy Scout troop used the grounds for a weekend to camp and work outside to earn badges.  We even had one Boy Scout, LJ Boone, who completed his Eagle Scout Project by building and installing “Bat Boxes” on our clubhouse grounds.

 Another weekend, we had The Lycoming/Clinton County Young Marines complete an Encampment teaching them vital survival skills, like building their own shelters to sleep in over the weekend.  This allowed them to earn ribbons and awards.
