"Thank you for teaching us young boys how to fish with patience, and to hunt with moral, safety, and sportsmanship. Thank you for taking some boys to the Cabin and teaching them along the way about the outdoors. And last, but never least, thank you for taking two little boys named Rodney and Brandon out to cut Christmas trees. I didn’t know it then but looking back on it now, that was the day you showed us how to be men. Dave Oyler, thank you again… for giving me the gift of an outstanding role model and how to be a man." Brandon

Alumni Christmas Tree Harvest

Date: November 22, 2025

The Club for Boys is preparing for our Annual Christmas Tree Project. As many of you remember, in November and December, The Club for Boys sells Christmas trees as an annual fundraiser. During that time, we offer a wide variety of trees, including fresh cut trees from the Black Hills. When you were a member of The Club for Boys, you may have had the opportunity to cut trees with our staff or always wanted to. As part of our Alumni Association, we are currently offering the opportunity on November 22 to volunteer to help cut trees for this fundraiser with Dave Oyler and Mark Kline.

Alumni are asked to show up to The Club for Boys between 7:30 and 8:00 am, dressed for the weather. We will be dragging and loading Black Hills spruce. We plan on being unloaded by 2:00 pm.

To sign up, please email [email protected].
