Dragoon Trail Chapter Izaak Walton League History as of January 2012

The Dragoon Trail Chapter received its charter, constitution and bylaws on the 14th day of December, 1966. The charter was started due to a common interest in hunting, fishing and fellowship. The chapter had strong ties with and was sponsored by the Des Moines Chapter, Izaak Walton League. There were many charter members. Money was raised strictly from dues, membership meals and raffles. Meetings were held twice a month in a log cabin shelter house in Ankeny Wagner Park just west of Parkview school on 1st street. Membership activities at that time were conservation programs, pancake dinners, DNR wildlife programs, films from local libraries and programs about member's hunting/fishing trips. Hunter education was held in conjunction with local scout groups. Pot luck wild game dinners were very common. When the shelter house was destroyed a new location was needed to continue activities.
