Getting Started
A hunt club may have any name as long as it is no longer than 25 characters in length and is not profane, embarrassing or offensive to the public.
Please Note: If more than one Recreational Lease Unit (RLU) is owned by the hunt club, the club name that is specified when the account is created will apply to all of those Recreational Lease Units (RLUs).
The hunt club contact represents the hunt club to Lyme Timber Company and acts as the primary contact. The contact can be any member of the club itself (president, secretary, etc.), but that individual will ultimately be responsible for payment of the lease fee. Invoices, dues, and other forms of correspondence from Lyme Timber Company will usually be via e-mail so that person should be someone who has a dependable internet connection and is a frequent user of e-mail.
