The Eastern Iowa Chapter was developed in March of 2013 by Allie McGraw; the first informational meeting took place in July of 2013 - where the board of directors was developed.  With the help of our committee leaders, volunteers, community support and media; the Eastern Iowa Chapter hosted its first event on June 7th, 2014 at Rock Creek Marina in Camanche Iowa. Over 30 anglers with disabilities had the opportunity to fish from boats and/or from shore.  Our anglers and volunteers came from all over the Eastern Iowa and Western IL area.
