Irwin Sportsmen's Association's mission shall be the encouragement and development of the honesty, good fellowship, and self discipline which are essential to good sportsmanship in all phases of sports afield as well as the conservation of wildlife and to own or lease grounds and buildings for these purposes.
We held the 2022 Spring HTE (Hunter Trapper Education) class held at Irwin Sportsmen Club. Chris Kastronis and myself spent all day on Sunday, March 27, with these fine folks and were rewarded with seeing all graduate successfully.
We may hold a class in the fall if there is interest. Also, we are interested in having a couple of new certified HTE instructors, so if anyone is interested they should contact me or Chris.

Please remember to close and lock the clubhouse and front gate if you are the last person there. Too often they are left open. If you do lock them up, it will save the club the expense of installing monitoring devices to record users. Our situation is that if left open, our club could be ransacked, burned, or a non-member may be injured and sue us. Thanks.
Slate Dump Shooting
Please call the North Huntingdon Police (724) 863-8800) to report shooting at the slate dump (West of our ranges beside RR tracks). We need you to help us record when this happens on the official documentation at the Police Department
