to BCC-IWLA!
Welcome
To strive for the purity of water, the clarity of air, and wise stewardship of the land and its resources
To know the beauty and understanding of nature and the value of wildlife, woodlands, and open space.
Conservation
Conservation is our mission. The National IWLA pledge is “To strive for the purity of water, the clarity of the air, and the wise stewardship of the land and its resources; to know the beauty and understanding of nature, and the value of wildlife, woodlands and open space; to the preservation of this heritage and to man’s sharing in it. I pledge myself as a member of the Izaak Walton League of America.” The BCC-IWLA Chapter upholds these values by engaging in sustainable farming, forestry, wildlife management, and environmental education.
Woodlands
The B-CC IWLA provides many opportunities for its members to become actively involved in the Chapter’s ongoing Forestry Program by planting trees, maintaining 26-plus miles of trails, and serving on various Ad Hoc Committees that are responsible for maintaining and conserving our woodlands.
Open Space
Conservation and Education are the primary focus of the BCC-IWLA’s mission. The C&E Committee meets as needed in the BCC-IWLA Chapterhouse, to plan & organize execution of each year’s conservation activities and events on the farm and at other locations around Maryland.
