🚨🦺🚨Lawn Care Team🚨🦺🚨

Are you a wanting to be a part of Washington Sportsman’s most elite group?  A group of specialized and skilled volunteers that enjoy the outdoors, a team dedicated to preserving the finest standards of Agrostology.  If so, then the Washington Sportsman’s Association Grass Rats team is for you!!!  As a grass rat, you will have the ability to get some peace and quiet while driving around the club’s grounds.  All our mowers come equipped with cushy seats and cup holders to hold a beverage.  I prefer to show up early and drink my joe while I mow! 

In all seriousness, the lawn team needs volunteers to make it work effectively.  We usually have enough people where each person mows 2-3 times for the whole year.  It takes about 3-4 hours if you are mowing by yourself, but my wife always joins me and it takes us 2 hours max.  We currently have a Kubota BX23 with a 60” cutting deck, a cub cadet 1054 with a 54” cutting deck and Ferris zero-turn mower with a 48” deck.  All the equipment is well maintained and ready for use.  It’s always a stretch to ask for people to use a push mower or trimmer; we do have a push mower, string trimmer and a walk behind brush cutter / string trimmer for use.  However, if I can just get some people to offer to come out and drive around for a few hours, I’ll take it!

If anyone is interested, or has questions, please let me know.     Link here to sign up.

(The Grass Rats Leader)

It has been a BUSY time here at the club!  

*Most recent is the placement of our fearless leader, your club president and all around good guy, Skip Alrutz. Skip has decided to step down and overseeing the replacement light pole for trap house 2 is his last duty. It is with this recognition, we will be renaming it to The Skip Alrutz Was Here pole!

Driveway maintenance of grading, milling and brush removal. 

The driveway has been paved to beyond the gate and the outdoor range parking lot has been expanded!  There is still some finishing touches to be made for parking with some grading, filter fabric placement and some millings or stone.

The old place is getting the facelift she needed!  With that, we'd like to thank everyone that takes their time and effort to keep things running.  Some of you go above and beyond and there is no way, even with this dedicated BoD, that we can do it without you!

The volunteer Lawn Care Team alone saves us thousands of dollars so that these kinds of improvements can take place without an increase in dues.

We would encourage anyone that has some time and wants to get involved with various committees for Trap, Skeet, Archery, Lawn and Picnic.  Send us an email: washingtonsportsmenclub@gmail.com
