Upcoming Events

 -TU 710 Annual Fundraising Banquet at Anthony's in Omaha, Saturday January 28th at 5 PM.

Please come to our Banquet. The Banquet is the only fundraising event for our chapter. Your support is vital if we are to continue in our efforts to protect trout habitat in the state of Nebraska. We will have various attractive live and silent auction items, a bucket raffle, and good food, company and drink. Steve Heinitz, a fishing guide on the North Platte and Encampment Rivers out of Saratoga Wyoming, will do a 20 minute program. A mailing with ticket information should be in member mailboxes by early January. Or email tu710@cox.net for the relevant info.

Our Mission

The Nebraska Chapter of TU was established in the mid-1990’s as a part of the fight to preserve the Verdigre Creek, the only coldwater stream in Eastern Nebraska. Since then we have grown to several hundred members and have become quite active as evidenced by our many projects.  Our mission is to support the work of Trout Unlimited on a local basis.

About

For more than 40 years, TU has played the leading role in protecting one of America’s last great national treasures: our nation’s trout and salmon fisheries.  By combining “on the ground” restoration projects, a cutting-edge scientific research and effective advocacy on behalf of our coldwater fisheries, TU has been an effective steward for trout and salmon nationwide.

Through over 450 chapters nationwide, TU organizes grassroots stream restoration projects, conservation programs and youth education events.

TU’s national fundraising initiatives such as the Coldwater Conservation Fund and the Embrace-A-Stream program provide hundreds of thousands of dollars annually for groundbreaking scientific research and local in-stream restoration projects across the country.

TU also works at the state and federal level, providing a voice for fish and coldwater resources, strengthening existing protections and challenging new threats to trout and salmon.
