Past:
Evergreen Sportsmen's Club as it is, was built and formed
throughout the late 1960's and early 70's. The club was
derived from the foundation of a previous club called the
Pogie club that owned property with a shooting facility on
Marvin Road near where I-5 goes thru, as it were, the
property was sold and used as part of the expansion of I-5.
Sometime thereafter a member of the club discovered the
property that is now E.S.C. The property had at one time
been an emergency or backup airstrip during WWII for P-38
war planes.
Because of the unique location and size of the property it
was purchased and setup as the facility it is now around
1970. Originally there were 24 traps put in place from the
center of the club house to the right and later the rest of
the traps to the left were added, making this the largest
trap shooting facility on the west coast.
Present:
There are several events hosted typically each year that
utilize the entire facility.
Future:
The members of the club are now thinking forward and making
this club into a full spectrum shooting facility for most
all of the shooting sports.
People:
According to some senior members of our club there have been
some members that were very instrumental to the success and
growth of this club, such as Lee & Alice Brennon and Pete
Strobl. Many members of the club consider the late Lee
Brennon to be the father of our club, for his dedication and
devotion to the foundation and strength of our club is
unsurpassed.
