Conservation Board

In 1977, the people of Wapello County voted to establish a county conservation board for the purpose of purchasing and developing lands for parks, hunting and fishing access, and other recreational uses in the county.

Are you a supporter of conservation, outdoor recreation, hunting, fishing, or just the natural world? Have you ever thought of joining the Wapello County Conservation Board? The Wapello CCB is a volunteer board of residents appointed by the Wapello County Supervisors. The board supports the mission – “To create awareness of our natural environment by providing quality outdoor experiences.
