2026 National Convention
Some years are optional. This one isn’t.
The 2026 National IWLA Convention is built to be accessible—and worth attending. It is about Getting it Done – turning passion into action.
What we’ve made possible:
– One simple, all-inclusive registration (meals included)
– Youth attend free
– Volunteers attend free
– Chapters that didn’t attend last year → free registration
Immediate ask:
Make a decision this week: Will your chapter send at least one person?
Even one attendee ensures your chapter is part of this.
We’re seeing chapters step forward and commit. We’d love to see yours included.
Need help getting this over the line?
We’re happy to help you work through any remaining questions.
Contact Joseph Barisonzi at Jbarisonzi@iwlamnvalley.org or 612-518-5536.
If someone else needs to approve, feel free to pass this along.
2026 National Convention
The 2026 National Convention of the Izaak Walton League brings together members and conservation leaders to connect and take action. This annual event highlights the League’s impact and inspires continued commitment to protecting our natural resources.
Your Voice in the League!
Delegates serve as the chapter’s official representatives at the upcoming National Convention and play a critical role in shaping the League’s direction for the coming year. In this capacity, delegates review and discuss draft resolutions, provide recommendations on policy matters at the local, state, and federal levels, and consider proposed amendments to the organization’s bylaws.
Additional information, including nomination forms, delegate guidelines, and chapter allotments, is available in the materials below.
National Conservation Scholarship
Each year, the League awards two $2,500 national scholarships to support college students pursuing degrees in natural resources and related fields, funded entirely by the Izaak Walton League of America Endowment.
