About Us:

The Defiance Area Fish and Game Association, Inc. would like to welcome you to our website.  For those of you who might not know, the Fish and Game is now an IRS approved 501(c)(3) tax exempt Educational Club.  While there are many benefits to being a tax-exempt club, one of the major benefits is for other clubs or individuals who would like to make a donation to the Defiance Area Fish and Game.  Since we are an approved 501(c)(3) entity, any donation made is tax-deductible.  Our designation as a 501(c)(3) was due in part to our Board of Director’s wanting to make more educational shooting opportunities available to both members and non-members of the club.  While daily shooting activities are limited to members, the special events, such as those for our Youth Shooting Sports and Women’s Shooting Sports, are open to non-members.

We hope that you will take a few minutes to tour our website and learn of the opportunities that the Fish and Game Club is offering members and the special events that will be open to non-members.

Keep your membership card with you when you come to the club grounds.  If you do not have your Life membership card or a current year membership card with you, you should not be on the club property.  Any member of the Fish and Game Club can request to see your membership card.  A good suggestion would be to have your card out on your shooting bench when shooting at the outdoor range.  Any person caught trespassing on the grounds who has never been a member will be reported to the sheriff’s office and charges filed.  Members have the month of January as a ‘grace’ period to renew their dues for the following year.  If, after February 1 a past member is on the property without a current year membership card they will be given a warning and allowed to pay that year’s dues.  Should it happen a second time they will no longer be allowed to join and should not be on the club property.
