Welcome to the IWLA Eugene Website
Founded in 1922, the Izaak Walton League of America is one of the nation’s oldest and most respected conservation organizations. With a powerful grassroots network of more than 240 local chapters nationwide, the League takes a common-sense approach toward protecting our country’s natural heritage and improving outdoor recreation opportunities for all Americans. We invite you to learn about our work and to join us in supporting important conservation initiatives in your community.
Over the past 100 years, the Izaak Walton League of America has been an extraordinary champion and defender of the nation’s soil, air, woods, waters and wildlife. Through member-driven bottom-up governance, we’re protecting outdoor America in communities across the country, while working strategically at the national level to win critical conservation battles.
The Eugene Chapter of the Izaak Walton League has worked to provide a safe and convenient place to practice shooting for local residents for over 50 years. We are a members only range and not open to the public. The chapter and members also participate in a wide variety of voluntary conservation efforts affecting our land and wildlife. We welcome newcomers to the chapter and encourage stewardship of the land.
The range is open for all current members!
News & Updates:
The range is open daily from 8:00AM to 7:00PM or sundown, whichever is earlier.
We do NOT rent out firearms to anyone. Please make sure you bring your own firearms unless you are attending an event that says firearms are provided! Please pick up after yourself after shooting! This means, take down your targets, clean up any garbage, and pick up your spent shells!
Volunteering at the range
Remember, if you volunteer at the range, you will get a discount on your membership. For every hour you work at the Range, you get $10.00 off your Range Use Fee (Workbond credit) on your next membership renewal!
The fourth Saturday of each month is range clean-up day. All or part of the range may be closed for repair, maintenance, or improvements. Eugene Chapter members are encouraged to volunteer for these activities and earn hours toward your work bond (which means you pay less for your Range Use Fee).
Please remember to let us know by submitting your work bond hours whenever you do any work on the range so you can get credit for your time!
Lead Harvesters! Protecting the environment is one of the main precepts of the Izaak Walton League of America. Harvesting lead from the range is one of the ways the Eugene Chapter adheres to this ideal. We report the amount that has been harvested to the DEQ to show that we are serious about keeping our land clean. If you are harvesting lead from the Range, please let us know! Please email at membership@izaakwaltoneugene.org. We would love to find out how much you have harvested! That information will be used in a report we do for the DEQ, but your name will not be used. Thanks for helping us make our environment better!
If you have lost any items at the range, please check our Lost and Found to see if they have been recovered by anyone!
Board Meeting Minutes and the Chapter Constitution and Bylaws are now online! Please see our Members Only section.
NOTICE: BOARD AUTHORIZED STEEL TARGETS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE! More information here.
Please remember that during Board authorized events, the portion of the range that is being used for that event is closed for shooting to nonparticipants.
