Congratulations to Erika D. (ticket #676896) for winning the 2019 Lowell Sportsmen’s Club Archery Challenge!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by the booth to take the Challenge and learn more about the club. Remember, our Annual Open House is September 7th – all the ranges will be open, there’s free food, a reptile show, and helicopter rides!

We also have regular weekly and monthly events that are open to the public. Stop by the club and try a new sport!

Come visit the Club’s booth on the Chelmsford Common during the July 4th celebration!

The Lowell Sportsmen’s Club will have a booth at the Chelmsford Country Fair on July 3rd and 4th in Chelmsford Center. The Fair starts at 5pm on Wednesday, July 3rd, and runs until after the parade on July 4th.

Because of the rain forecast for Saturday the 4th, the Shooter’s Challenge has been postponed to Saturday, August 18th.

Come test your skills in a variety of sporting activities to see who will get their name on the Shooter’s Challenge Cup this year!

This event is open to LSC members only, and the prize is a free year’s club membership, bragging rights as the top shooter in the club, and your name on the Illustrious Shooters Challenge Cup to prove it.

Each Shooter’s Challenge consists of 4 or 5 different events, including anything from Revolver Roulette, Buckshot Poker, Beaver Archery, pistol, trap, spear, rifle, fishing – it could be anything. Both skill and luck are important for these events, and everyone has fun.

Registration starts at 8:30 am and the Challenge starts at 9:00 am. Cost is $25 per person, and the Shooter’s Challenge is limited to LSC members only.

If you have any questions, please see Blackpowder Al.

Congratulations Liam! The winner of the Archery Challenge at the 2018 LSC booth at the Chelmsford Country Fair on July 4th did so with just one raffle ticket!

Liam visited the booth on the evening of July 3rd, while his sister was performing with the baton-twirling group on the Common. This was one of the first time Liam ever tried shooting a bow, and although his two shots didn’t connect with the target for more tickets, he didn’t need them. Liam picked up his prize bow and arrow set at the Club’s open-to-the-public Thursday Night Archery, and received some instruction from the coaches on how to set up the bow, safety procedures, and proper archery form. Congratulations again Liam, and thanks for taking the Archery Challenge!

Thanks also to all the members to put the booth together and answered questions during the two days on the Common: John Wren, Herb Cline, Jim Martin, and Brian Herzog.

A lot of people stopped by to find out what LSC was all about, and we passed out quite a few membership applications and really promoted the Open House on September 8th. The Archery Challenge was once again hugely popular, with kids and adults alike testing their skill almost non-stop. It was a great fundraiser for the club, and Thursday Night Archery may see a bump in attendance too!
