To support the mission and vision of Trout Unlimited, our chapter regularly participates in stream workdays and restorations. This is a fantastic way for EDTU members to make a difference and learn about the most pressing issues facing our streams and waters. Almost all of our chapter trips include a workday component to help us restore and protect the waters we fish.

 

In 2023, our direct participation in service projects and stream restorations included:

• Sand Counties, Wisconsin: Engaging in service projects and stream restorations.

• Northern Michigan: Contributing to the conservation of the Au Sable and Upper Manistee rivers.

• Driftless Region, Iowa: Active involvement in stream restoration efforts.

• Chicago River: Participation in various river cleanups.

​

In addition to our active participation in service projects, we supported numerous others through financial contributions. In 2023 we donated $10,000 to the TU Driftless Area Restoration Effort to support restoration projects on the West fork of the Kickapoo River.
