Award Winning Chapter
We don't do what we do for the recognition. But it's rewarding to know our efforts are making a difference.
The Des Moines County Conversation hosts a volunteer dinner every year, where they award volunteers for specific categories. The chapter was awarded, "The Volunteer Group of the Year Award" for 2024. We were awarded for our outstanding service at raising funds for public land expansion, volunteering with our public programs, and improving habitat throughout the county.
At National Pheasant Fest in 2017, the Aldo Leopold Chapter was awarded PF's National No Child Left Indoors Award for our "committment to mentoring the next generation of hunters and conservationists."
