We are a family oriented Black Powder Muzzleloading Rifle Club that focuses
on safety and good fun. Our shoots are every Memorial Day and Labor
Day weekend. We have been around since 1963 and have been located
at our own property on Tug Hill, since 1998. Family participation
in all activities is encouraged. We like to help folks new to muzzle
loaders get started in this great hobby.

About this website
This is a first stab at something. Something is better than nothing.
I'd love to hear people's suggestions about what we want to put on the
web. Some things I'd like to do include the following:
directions and a map to the shoot grounds
lots of pictures from past shoots and woodsmens parades
actual shoot match sheet
links to other black powder resources on the web such as MLML
information about raffles, and other money raisers, including winners.
