2026 Sportsman of the Year is: Russ Stanton<\/h1>\n

\"\"Please welcome our 2026 Sportsman of the Year, Russ Stanton! Russ joined the club on August 30, 2016 and from then on, he has become an integral part of the TR&G community. He gives his heart and soul to this club and you will know him, for sure, as he walks around the club and introduces himself to new members every Tuesday evening and events. He encouraged and introduced two new members to the Tewksbury Lucky Seven pistol Team D, which Russ is assistant captain. He helped this team bring home the first-place trophy this past season. Russ is our grounds keeper, and with his lawn care team, the lawns are kept up and look great! He is also our mechanic for all machines, keeping the oil changed and making sure they are the best working condition. As his sister-in-law, Mary Stanton states, he is an all-around great guy. We can attest and every member of this club that knows Russ, whole-heartedly agrees!<\/p>\n\n\n
