Spring 2025

 

     

SPRING 2025

It wasn't that long ago that we welcomed in a new year and prepared for the many changes that would come along.  Spring has finally arrived and all that has taken place so far, well, it's been interesting, to say the least! 

A lot of positive changes are in motion for our club this year and we are looking forward to the opening of our new Trap House, complete with our new Clay Thrower, thanks to the efforts of several board and club members who have put great effort into updating this facility.

June will be the start of our Summer Fishing Contest, open to all club member children and families.  There's nothing better than having the kids put down their iPads, phones and other devices and get them out fishing!  This summer-long contest will allow for many terrific fishing opportunities.  Rules and additional information will go out to all club members for this fun contest.

Two big work events will take place in the months ahead which will allow club members to get their required work hour commitment in and contribute to the maintenance of club grounds, ranges and facilities.

One big club event of the summer season will be our Friends & Family BBQ on August 2nd.  Always a great gathering of club members, family and many friends, who enjoy an outstanding barbeque put together by several club "chefs".  One highlight of the day is our Annual Food Throwdown Competition where club members compete for the best-of-the-best with bringing a specific food item to the judging table.  Winners get a custom trophy and bragging rights for the year ahead!

The best part about the Kent Rod & Gun Club is the teamwork behind various club improvement projects with the goal to keep club facilities updated for the benefit of our membership.  It's all about volunteer work and those club members who never hesitate to give their time, effort and talent, with jobs needing to be done are what keeps this club always moving in a positive direction. 

We continue to look forward to endless possibilities as this year continues to roll along!

Kent Rod & Gun Club

 

As we step into the fresh start of a new year, we pause to reflect on the incredible moments we shared as a club in 2024 and look ahead to the exciting possibilities that lie ahead in 2025.

The Kent Rod and Gun Club is more than just a space to gather, it is a community built on shared passion, support, a commitment to growth and, most of all, member teamwork which is key for our organization. Members of this club have played a vital role in shaping and improving our atmosphere and facilities.  In addition, we have been proud to be a long-established part of the Putnam County community for the past seventy-seven years.

In the year ahead, we will work to find ways to use our collective strength to make a positive impact in our community, whether through volunteer initiatives or charitable giving.

We look forward to making 2025 remarkable!
