Terryville Fish & Game Club
The Terryville Fish & Game Club in Terryville, CT is a member-owned establishment where all individuals are considered equal partners. The club's property is situated in Terryville, bordered by Harwinton Avenue and Bemis Street, comprising two ponds - the 5.6-acre Upper pond and the 13.4-acre Middle pond, along with 14.16 acres of predominantly woodland, totaling approximately 33.16 acres. The clubhouse, located on Grove Street, features a spacious meeting/dining room adorned with a charming stone fireplace, a functional kitchen, and a welcoming bar/lounge downstairs. Originally the property of the Eagle Lock Company, the ponds were man-made in the late 1800s to provide power for the Eagle Lock Company and recreational amenities for its executives. In the early 1950s, the Terryville Fish & Game Club leased the property from the Lansing Foundation, eventually acquiring it for $25,000 in 1972. The club's mission is to enhance hunting and fishing experiences for members, promote sportsmanship, organize social activities to foster camaraderie, ensure adherence to Connecticut's fish and game laws, advocate for conservation efforts, and maintain amicable relationships with landowners and Plymouth residents, all while upholding a non-profit, non-political, and non-sectarian ethos.
