Member Support:

The Skowhegan Sportsmans Club has the most amazing, awesome, incredible and fabulous volunteers!

Without these volunteers our club would not exist! Everything you see has taken time and funds of those who have been involved.

Next time you see one of these stellar people, stop and thank them for their tireless efforts, keeping things running smoothly, for the benefit for all.  Then be sure to ASK HOW YOU CAN HELP! We want to share the responsibility and not have people burn out.

An active role in your club makes it an inviting atmosphere, find a way to help whether it be behind the scenes with membership mailings and like duties or giving your time on the club property and ranges at your convenience.

It takes a lot of volunteer time to ensure things run smoothly: there is set-up, tear-down and cleaning during events, classes, meetings.

Meetings- we need tables/chairs set-up and then broken down, 50/50 ticket sellers, raffle sellers, clean up after the meeting. It is all important.

You do not have to be committed to every class, every meeting but if you can dedicate some time here and there let us know.

During the Safety Courses- we need Volunteers who can commit to helping with set-up, be there for instruction, to help with clean-up.

Club Matches: we need people who will set-up, help direct people, clean-up: it all helps!

We have general maintenance of the clubhouse, club grounds and range grounds. Mowing, Target Repairs, Maintenance of ditches and culverts.

There’s no denying that volunteers are an integral piece to the club. Volunteers are the heart and soul of who and what we are.

Your club needs you, reach out to find out how you can help. Thanks!
