3-D Archery Shoot – May 2
We are hosting another 3-D Archery Event on May 2 from 6am to 3pm, rain or shine. The event is open to the public. All ages, skill levels, and most equipment types are welcome (no crossbows, sorry!)
The 30 station course is set on the 52-acre wooded property of the Centralville Sportsmen’s Club and presents a wide range of simulated bowhunting scenarios including everything from small game to large predators. There is something for everyone to enjoy from junior to senior. The 1.5-mile course is easy to follow, a practice area is available, and we have a special challenge for those with long range skills!
Adult Entry Fee is $15; Juniors are Free.
The kitchen is open at 6AM serving breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Hamburgers and hotdogs and chips and tonic will be served for lunch.

Spring Cleanup 2021
Over thirty club members and friends turned out to spruce up our grounds and surrounding area. Around ten large contractor bags of trash as well as a bar stool and a full basketball backboard set were picked up from Old Parker Road and parts of Parker Road and Wheeler Road making the neighborhood a little nicer.

Soon to be scheduled will be the “Refuse To Be A Victim” seminar which teaches common weaknesses that criminals may take advantage of and a variety of corrective measures that are practical, inexpensive and easy to follow. The seminar includes classroom instruction on criminal psychology, automobile crimes; cyber safety, home security, and a variety of crime prevention strategies including carjack avoidance techniques, use of personal safety devices, and more. Students receive the Refuse To Be A Victim® student handbook, NRA Refuse To Be A Victim® brochure, NRA Become A Refuse To Be A Victim® Instructor Brochure, Refuse To Be A Victim® Firearms Supplement, and a course completion certificate. This is not a firearms instruction course, and does not include instruction in physical combat self-defense. The cost for this seminar is $30 for members and families, $35 for non-members. Class size is limited to 12 participants in order to maintain social distancing.
Checks can be made payable to “Centerville Sportsmen’s Club”. Cash is also accepted but we are unable to provide change. Once confirmed, if your plans change and you cannot attend the class, please try to give us at least two days’ notice so we can allow someone on the waiting list attend in your spot.
Social distancing will be maintained and masks are required for all sessions. To sign up for a class or for more information please send email us at firearmsclass@cscdracut.org.
Another Successful 3-D Archery Shoot!
The club hosted another successful Granite State Bowhunters 3-D Shoot n Sunday, February 28. Over 60 archers participated enjoying a relatively mild day in the woods testing their skills. These events are successful due to the time and hard work of many members including Tony Autiello, Bill Gagne, Chris Deschenes, Ryan Ayotte, Don Costa, Dan Ignacio, Alan Coupal, and others. Thank you everyone!
Christmas TOY DRIVE 2020!
Realizing that we could not hold a club Christmas party this year, Katie Sullivan suggested we hold a toy drive with the club matching donations up to what it would have cost us for the party. The money was appropriated at the November membership meeting and Katie spearheaded the drive. Thanks to the generous nature of our members, Katie and Charity Croce completed the shopping (with a lot of help from Jacob Croce and Isabel Sullivan) for the matching toys from the club. Over 200 toys from the Centralville Sportsmen’s Club were dropped off at the fire station. Members not only donated toys but also $350 in cash to be used to purchase more toys.
NICE JOB EVERYONE!
SANTA CLAUS DRIVE-BY 2020!
The Santa Claus Drive-by hosted by the Centralville Sportsmen’s Club in partnership with the Town of Dracut was a huge success! Hundreds of happy children got a chance to see Santa which is especially important this year when he cannot be visited in-person. Many members contributed a lot of time and effort to make this a success but special recognition goes to Lee Ward for the communication and organization with town officials (as well as an awesome sound system at the event), to Dan Croce (Mr. Event as we call him) who came up with the idea and then organized and coordinated all aspects of it in such a ridiculously short amount of time, to Richie Almeida who contributed an inordinate amount of time, effort, and skill, and Adam Sullivan who once again put his wood-working skills to great use to make this event a success. And of course we cannot forget the big guy himself, Santa Claus, who braved the cold and the rain to bring so many smiles to all the children (and adults) .
It could not have happened without our partnership with the town especially town manager Ann Vandal, Deputy police chief Stephen Chaput, Recreation Director Lori Cahill, Steve Enos from the DPW, the fire department, the garden club, the historical society, and countless others. And thank-you to Lowe’s for contributions and discounts without which this would not have been possible.
