Lindsay Gun Club

Lindsay Gun Club The Schuetzenverein, a secular society, was organized about 1907, and is probably the oldest organization in the town of Lindsay.

A Kaffee-kraenzchen was one of the regularly-scheduled events held in the hall. Every 3rd month, the Christian Mothers Society sponsored this event. Coffee and lunch were served and informational talk and general discussions were held. Wedding receptions and family gatherings often frequented the building, making it Lindsay's Community Center for many years. Until the mid-1920s, the meetings were held in German, then they changed to English and called their organization "The Gun Club".
