CONSERVATION FOR GENERATIONS

ABOUT US

Ducks Unlimited is the world's leader in wetlands and waterfowl conservation.

​

DU got its start in 1937 during the Dust Bowl when North America's drought-plagued waterfowl populations had plunged to unprecedented lows. Determined not to sit idly by as the continent's waterfowl dwindled beyond recovery, a small group of sportsmen joined together to form an organization that became known as Ducks Unlimited. Its mission: habitat conservation.

​

The Dogwood Chapter is based out of Statesville, NC. It consists of a seasoned volunteer committee that is dedicated to promoting the ideals of DU through its fundraising and events. The chapter is proud of their annual oyster roast, which consistently ranks as a Top 10 Chapter in North Carolina.
