Dowagiac Conservation Club

Dowagiac Conservation Club Thank you for your interest in the Dowagiac Conservation Club. Established in 1947, we are proud to have over
350 junior, annual, and life members.
(26)

We are a non-profit organization and raise the money needed to maintain and
run the club through weekly Sunday morning breakfasts, fall fish fries,
3-D Archery course, pistol and rifle range, trap range and special fund raisers. These events are all worked by volunteer members and friends. This
enables the club to keep the cost of membership dues lower than most area clubs.

Our Story

Established in 1947, Dowagiac Conservation Club today has over 300 annual, life and junior members.​

DCC is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving our youth and community by promoting outdoor sports, safety, understanding and conservation of natural resources.​

Funds to maintain our club and support our mission are raised through membership dues and volunteer driven events like Sunday breakfast buffets, all-you-can-eat fish fries, trap shoots, 3-D archery, rim fire shoots, and special events like the Wild Game Dinner, Gun Show and Hunters Rendezvous. These efforts allow us to keep our membership dues very reasonable compared to other area clubs.
