Mission

The Sportsman's club was organized in 1948 by a group of like-minded individuals who wanted to educate the general public about the safe handling and use of firearms. It was later incorporated in 1962 and is dedicated to firearms safety education as a public service, marksmanship training as a contribution to individual preparedness for personal and national defense, and the sports of shooting, hunting, and fishing as wholesome forms of recreation.

Program accomplishments

  • Participation, operations, and membership levels have returned to normal after the medical crisis. At the end of 2024, membership increased slightly to 1601 members. During the year, range participation was slightly higher (at 7235 people who shot at the range) than previous years, and we anticipate that those numbers will rise. The mix of participants remained similar to previous years, but the programs and classes we are promulgating have generated additional interest on the part of members and potential members. The Ladies Only Night program continues to be successful. More classes have been provided and attendance is up slightly. The Junior team sponsorship has continued and members have placed highly in local and national competition. The classrooms continue to be well used and have a high occupancy factor. The indoor high-power range has been successful with good utilization.Volunteer range safety officers, instructors, board members, and others provided over 10,000 volunteer labor hours to the organization at a value of over $313,400.00.
    Expenses $164,324 · grants $7,700 · revenue $116,574
  • Competition and training classes were offered an average of once per week. Both formal and informal classes were offered. We continue to develop new classes to add to the offerings. The State of Alaska Hunter Education Program classes are also offered and have been well attended. Class attendance has rebounded to pre-pandemic levels due in part to management efforts on the part of the training manager and a dedicated cadre of instructors. Over 325 people were trained in both formal and informal training classes. The classes given provided training from introduction to firearms through advanced personal defense. Training also included Range Safety Officer Training, Chief Range Safety Officer Training, a metallic cartridge reloading class, and Refuse To Be A Victim class. A total of 34 classes were provided in 9 different disciplines and 263 people received training.. We continue to develop new classes to add to the offerings. The State of Alaska Hunter Education Program classes are also offered. In 2024, 97 people were trained under that program in 8 different classes.

    Expenses $7,597 · revenue $8,510
