Greetings Templeton Fish and Game Members, Guests, and Community Members!
Thank you to everyone who attended our first members' meeting of the season on Monday - it was well attended and great to see people involved. It was a long winter, but the club did really well - we appreciate all those who support the club during these slower months. Tickets for our annual Chicken BBQ held in May are NOW ON SALE! Tickets can be purchased at the Club and must be purchased in advance. The Queen of Hearts is also still alive, and the jackpot is now $6,330 at The Templeton Fish & Game Club. The Queen is drawn every Friday night at 7:00 sharp! We have a theme for our 16th Annual Golf Cart & Boat Parade that will be held on Saturday, July 4th - see all the details below as we get ready to celebrate America's 250th birthday! Our very popular Summer Music Series will begin on Sunday, June 21st, at the Lower Pavilion, Pond View Pub, from 2:00 - 5:00. More details to come, including the full lineup! .22 Shoots will begin on Thursday, May 21st at 6:00 at the Range, see more details below!
Our Spring Clean-Up will take place on Saturday, May 9th, from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM - bring any tools, blowers, rakes you have to help. Probationary members can earn volunteer hours at this event, and more membership participation is required; otherwise, we may need to outsource this work, which costs the club money. Contact Ricky Leger for more details or to sign up. We appreciate the help!
You are going to start seeing a lot of events popping up in our weekly newsletter, but also on our Facebook page - be sure to follow us for all the latest events!
NEW MEMBERS WELCOME - Our first Members meeting of the new season was held his past Monday, and it was a packed house - welcome to all of the new members who were sworn in! We hope you enjoy Templeton Fish & Game Club and everything we have to offer!
If you are thinking about summer or hosting an event at the Club, check out our facilities/rentals page for all the details - you can reach out to Diane McDonald for club availability. Dates are already being booked, and Mama Loves Catering is ready to meet all of your catering needs.
UPDATED IMPORTANT NOTICES TO ALL MEMBERS MEMBERS MEETING - Our next members' meeting will be held on Monday, May 25th (Yes, Memorial Day), starting at 6:30. Anyone interested in becoming a member of the Templeton Fish & Game Club should submit their application to our membership secretary. Members are sworn in monthly at our meetings! All new members must be sponsored by a current member of the Club! You can find membership details and the application on the membership page of our website!
Nominations for the Board of Directors will be taken next month - there are three positions available. Reach out to Chairman Paul Cormier for more information.
SEPTIC ALARMS and PUMP OUT: As you return to camp if you are an owner, it is essential that your electricity is turned on and your septic alarm is working with a functioning lightbulb - last year we ended the season with only 2 failures out of 105 alarms - let's get that number to 100% this season! It is critical that our alarms are operating correctly for DEP and Conservation. Lawrence Septic earned the pump out bid this year - the cost will be $.22/gallon. Camp owners can call anytime (978-632-9470) to be pumped out for the contracted rate and will also include the required inspection. If your camp does not need a pump out now, pump outs and tank inspections will be conducted in June. If you have any questions, please reach out to our DEP Liasion, Eric Adamson.
The next Lot Committee meeting will be held on Monday, May 11th starting at 6:00 - any work being done on your camp required a permit approved by the lot committee - forms can be found on the website. Please remember it is mud season, so be mindful when driving on any club roads, as they may be soft. Please do NOT drive up on the hill near the club either, so we keep our property in good shape heading into the warmer days. Camp owners, please remember that any work done on your lots must be approved by the lot committee in advance.
Camp owners who are selling their camps, please see the special notice posted on the Membership page of our website. Camps for sale are posted in the clubhouse and also on the Camps for Sale page of our website! After posting the camp for sale at the Club, you can add a listing and photos to our "Camps for Sale" page on our website - please contact Lynn Sayarath at bostonterrier97@comcast.net to add your camp details!
CONTACT UPDATE: Do you need to update your mailing address, email, or phone with the club? Please use our contact update form located on our website! You can find the form on our Member Forms page.

GRASS MOWING VOLUNTEERS NEEDED |
The grass is starting to peek through around the lake, which means it’s that time of year to call on our members for help with mowing the property. Many hands make light work!
Volunteer sign-ups are now available in the clubhouse. This effort helps the club save a significant amount of money, and you’re welcome to volunteer once, twice, or as often as you can.
We truly appreciate all the help and support! |
