The Slovenian Hunters and Anglers Club
Alliston Ontario
The Slovenian Hunters and Anglers Club was founded in September
1971, by twenty five sportsmen who came to this country during
the third phase of Slovenian immigration to Canada. Land was
purchased for a recreational centre near Everett, eleven kilometres
north east of Alliston and eighty kilometres north of Toronto.
The facility, which was constructed mainly by members, includes
a twenty room hunters' lodge, two halls accommodating three
hundred people each, an olympic sized swimming pool, a large
patio, a children's playground, bowling facilities, a soccer
field, trap shooting facilities, and an area for trailers and
campers. There are approximately one hundred adult members and
they all contribute their time to the necessary service jobs
and administrative duties that keep the club operating efficiently.
The club's main activities are chess toumaments, playing card
tournaments, shooting competitions, hunting, fishing, picnics,
Octoberfest, a hunters' banquet, a walkathon in aid of Dom Lipa
Etobicoke, and publication of the magazine Slovenski Lovski
Vestnik.
