The Temple City Sportsmen began as an organization of
Pacific Telephone employees in the Pasadena, California area in 1947.
As the Club population grew, members moved
toward independent trips or retired to states that offered resources in
their own backyard. Many of our members children showed interest in
their fathers activities resulting in Junior membership level beginning
at age 16.
Activities involved conservation projects which
included developing springs to supply animal drinkers, installing
guzzlers to capture rain, and building fishing sites accessible by
wheelchair anglers.
As interest demands the Club will organize salt water fishing trips (
typically Rock Cod or Yellowtail/Albacore) freshwater trips (Trout,
Bass), hunting trips (Quail/Chucker and Pheasant), organized shooting
events (Pentathlon and Turkey target shoot) and Conservation projects.
The Club meets once a month to discuss upcoming events and generally
plan the "good stuff". In addition, members organize their own personal
events which are often shared with other members and friends.
In times of shrinking budgets, the Temple City Sportsmen support
organizations that continue the fight to preserve the Second Amendment
and those involved in Wildlife Preservation.
Accordingly we support Ducks Unlimited,
Southwest Anglers, United Anglers
of California, National Rifle
Association (NRA), Gun Owners of
America, California Rifle and
Pistol Association,
California Department of Fish and
Game,
The National
Forest Service and The
Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership.
