In the questions below, we ask you to provide basic information on chapter meetings, publications, activities, and other uses of chapter property. This information is needed to help us determine the extent to which your chapter is supporting the conservation mission of the Izaak Walton League of America and fulfilling its obligations as a tax-exempt organization. In each case, we ask you to estimate approximately how much time your chapter devoted last year to these types of activities. In the case of chapter meetings, publications, and activities, we would like to know whether the primary purpose of an individual activity was for education/conservation; social/recreation; fundraising; or chapter operations. To help you complete this form, here is a list of sample individual activities that would qualify as education/conservation; social/recreation; fundraising; or chapter operations: Education or Conservation Activities: Hunter/angler conservation or safety education programs; firearms training; stream monitoring; litter pick-up events; tree plantings; presentation or articles on conservation topics; testimony at public hearings on conservation issues; providing facilities to schools, scouts, or other youth groups: student scholarships to study conservation; or providing grants to other conservation organizations.
