Our Work
The Aroostook Sportsman Association provides a welcoming environment to learn and grow as a sportsman.
​
We offer outdoor enthusiasts a variety of resources and educational opportunities. Our annual Spring Sportsman's Show and Fall Gun Show are highly-anticipated events where our community can come together to learn, share stories, and educate themselves and others about the outdoors;
Our Youth Adventure Camp Program is designed to cultivate a deep appreciation and respect for nature in our youth and inspire them to become the next generation of wildlife conservationists. This program offers hands-on, outdoor experiences that teach conservation and sustainability practices while instilling a lifelong love for field sports;
​
We offer a Maine Guide School taught by legendary Master Maine Guides Carroll and Lila Ware. They will prepare you to confidently enter the state's testing and licensing process to obtain a Maine Guide's License.
We offer NRA-sanctioned courses for all levels of skill and more. Visit our Events or Educational Training page to find something that interests you or someone you know.
​
Hunters and anglers form the foundation of wildlife conservation, generating more funding for habitat and wildlife management than any other group. Join us today and help grow more Sportsmen and Sportswomen to carry on wildlife conservation work.
Educational Shows:
The Aroostook Sportsman's Spring Show and our annual Fall Gun Show both provide outdoor-themed educational opportunities.
Laser Shot Sim Range Training:
We have several software choices, depending on what skills you want to build; hunting scenarios, target acquisition, and more.
Our Sim Range is scalable and can be set-up to allow three lanes per screen. It also sports an integrated laser hit detection camera inside the projector, ensuring constant alignment and rapid setup.

Maine Firearms Hunter's Safety Course:
Taking a hunter safety course is the first step to joining a community of conservationists! Hunters have a longstanding role as conservationists, helping keep wildlife populations at healthy levels and giving biologists valuable harvest data. Hunters also provide funding for wildlife management. Without hunters, it would not be possible to monitor and protect game in Maine.
Maine Guide School: (June 6-8, 2024)
REGISTER FOR MAINE GUIDE SCHOOL
Prepare to confidently enter the state’s testing and licensing process. A Maine Guide’s License is not easily obtained, so it must be understood that “the patch” should not be taken lightly. Throughout history, Maine Guides have been revered as some of North America’s most knowledgeable and proficient woodsmen. This tradition began in the late 1890s when the Maine legislature required all hunting guides to be registered with the state. It is a symbol with an honorable history.
Our annual Hunters Breakfast bring like-minded conservationists together
