The Hudson Fish and Game Club is a membership-based club, comprised of, at most, 125 members. We are currently accepting new applications for membership.

Members have full 24/7 access to all grounds and facilities at HFGC (see "Facilities & Rentals").

Membership is associated with yearly dues of $225, and a 20-hour per year work requirement, which includes numerous activities that benefit the club, such as grounds maintenance, staffing club events, or taking leadership positions in the club.

Attend a General Meeting (1st of 3 required meetings)

Find a meeting which both you and your sponsor can attend. At this meeting, you will be expected to pay your first dues, and present your completed background check.

General Members meetings are generally the 3rd Monday of every month, but please check the event calendar for confirmation

Attend a Board of Directors Meeting (2nd of 3 required meetings)

You will be introduced to the Board of Directors, where they can ask you questions to test your understanding of range rules and bylaws. The board will vote on your membership.

Attend a General Meeting (3rd of 3 required meetings)

This is the final required meeting in the joining process for the general membership to vote on your membership. If you are accepted, you are officially a member of the club, as a probational member.

Probationary Period

During your first 6 months of membership in the club, you are considered "probationary". During this time, you will not have key card access to the facilities. You can use any of the facilities, and qualify and then shoot at any of the ranges as long as you are in the presence of another "full" member.

Once you complete 20 work hours, and 6 months elapse since your joining date, you become a full member of the club, and a key card will be provisioned for you.

Going Forward

After becoming a full member of the club, each subsequent year, you are expected to pay yearly dues and complete the 20-hour/year work requirement.
