Junior Club .22 Shoot, Saturday, January 24th
The Junior Club is having a .22 Shoot at the Indoor Range on Saturday, 24-Jan’15 from 9:00AM to 12:00 noon. Guns, ammo, help and pizza are all free!
Along with target practice, we will also discuss the Massachusetts Junior Conservation Camp for 13-17 year olds. Last year’s attendees said they had a great time at camp and learned a lot; this year’s camp runs August 2nd through the 14th. WSC’s camp scholarship application deadline is 31-Jan’15.
If you are interested in bringing a Junior to the shoot, or applying for a camp scholarship, contact Elizabeth, the Junior Club advisor.
2015 Forestry Walk, Sunday, January 11th

Bear on Club Grounds, 18-Aug’14

There have been numerous reports of bears in Westford. If you encounter a bear, do not approach it and keep any dogs under control.
