Abstract:

Riverside Sportsman Club is an African American hunt club founded in the 1970s. The club primarily meets and hunts on member owned property in Granville and Franklin Counties. Dogs have always been a part of Riverside's history. The club has since gone from deer hounds to beagles, as it was observed the deer hound often ran the deer too hard. A founding member of the club, James Moore died at age 97 in 2021.
