Plus you'll receive these benefits:

• Outdoor America magazine: The League's quarterly magazine includes award-winning conservation articles you won't read anywhere else, advocacy updates, and success stories from League members across the country.

• E-news: News you can use each month to defend outdoor America, including Action Alerts on national legislation that affects your community.

• Advocacy: The League is fighting for you – to protect clean water, conserve fish and wildlife habitat across the country, and provide access to places to enjoy outdoor recreation.

• Networking: Tap into a network of League members with a range of conservation and outdoor recreation expertise.

• National Convention: Our members-only annual meeting offers in-person networking as well as the opportunity to hear from world-class experts on environmental issues and be a part of setting the League's conservation priorities.

• Scholarships: Each year, the Izaak Walton League awards one $2,500 scholarship to an undergraduate pursuing a degree in conservation and the environment. This student must be a League member or the child/grandchild of a League member. Additional Scholarships are available from the IWLA Illinois Division and this Chapter.

• And the knowledge that you are supporting one of America's oldest conservation organizations – the only organization training volunteers to monitor and protect water quality nationwide.
