Founded in 1949, Camillus Sportsmen's Club operates as a private, non-profit membership organization dedicated to shooting sports and conservation in Central New York. The club sits on 100 acres approximately 6 miles west of Syracuse, bordered by the historic Erie Canal.
Family memberships cover members through age 18 (children), with senior rates at half price. The membership period runs calendar year and gives you access to the clubhouse and grounds. Membership applications are accepted once monthly on the second Saturday from 9am to noon, plus at semi-annual meetings (second Wednesday of May and November).
