Overview

Mission

To conserve, restore, and promote the sustainable use and enjoyment of our natural resources, including soil, air, woods, waters, and wildlife.

What it reported doing in 2024

Throughout the year, Sioux Falls Izaak Walton League serves a variety of functions from being a community gathering center for group and family events to being a prime location for youth and adult shooting sports leagues and events. Annual activities include hosting various high school and local 4-H youth trap leagues to teach safe and ethical harvesting of game, hosting adult trap leagues and year-round shooting events to encourage member networking and conducting conservation activities for both youth and adults to educate all on the importance of conserving nature's resources. These events and activities allow Sioux Falls Izaak Walton League to honor its mission statement by providing endowments towards the preservation of nature and the conservation of its land and resources for future generations. In 2024, approximately 230 youth participated in the various activities held at the Ike's League.
