to participate in the program.
The $25 annual
membership fee is for one individual to pursue
all outdoor activities.
The $50 annual
family membership fee is for a family living in
same household (all activities).
All
memberships will be annual from the date the
application is received.
Checks or
money orders only made payable to: Access
Illinois Outdoors/Two Rivers.
Access
Illinois Outdoors/Two Rivers requires everyone
requesting access to private property to complete
an application and include the membership fee.
Please specify
in the application if you wish to participate
with other Access Illinois Outdoors/Two Rivers
applicants. If you hunt as a group, it would be
helpful to apply together. Permission granted
toyou as an individual to access private property
does not give permission to your hunting partners
or group if they are not Access Illinois Outdoors
members.
The members
are required to discuss with the landowner the
location of livestock, machinery, possible
natural or artificial hazards and location of
property lines.
The members
must comply with all wildlife and fish laws and
possess the required license, stamps and permits.
These are available from the Illinois Department
of Natural Resources at 217-782-7305. Access
Illinois outdoors/Two Rivers staff is not
responsible for obtaining or issuing licenses,
stamps, permits, etc.
When a
landowner has granted you permission to access
private property, you will be issued an "Access
Card" by the landowner, which should be on
your person while accessing the private property.
