About MRGC's Habitat Restoration Projects:

The Marin Rod and Gun Club has always been the leader in the conservation of Fish and Game.  In the past as it is now, our club has been instrumental in stopping pollution of our bays and streams.

When the club was in its infancy, we published several full-page advertisements, resulting in the installation a sewage disposal plant. 

Currently the club is sponsoring an important study being performed by local marine biologists who volunteer their time to help preserve our indigenous oyster population.  We encourage you to read through the articles and volunteer your time if wish to become involved with this important project.

The bay waters surrounding the club's 1/2-mile pier provide a perfect habitat for studying the growth and migration habits of our native oyster and eelgrass population.
