Iowa Divison of the Izaak Walton League

The IWL was one of the first conservation organizations established in America and has been at the forefront of significant conservation policy— one hundred years ago the League was the driving force behind the creation of the Upper Mississippi National Wildlife and Fish Refuge, which protects wildlife habitat along 261 miles of the river in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa and Illinois.

Through out the years many chapters were formed in Iowa and beyond to protect land and waterways.  Join us to learn more about what we are doing today as we seek to continue this legacy, engage our chapters, and expand our networks by working with the youth, while utilizing new technologies to communicate with them.
