Idaho Outdoor Association


Welcome to the IOA! 
Our Mission and Objectives are: 

  • To promote and encourage stewardship of the wildlife, habitat, and recreational resources of the state of Idaho.  

  • To encourage good sportsmanship, ethics, and responsibility in outdoor activities. 

  • To conserve, protect, and help maintain both public and private property used for recreational purposes. 

  • To promote and encourage healthy outdoor activities. 

We believe that anyone who participates in outdoor recreation of any kind should be willing to help protect and improve the natural resources of the state of Idaho. 

General meetings are held at our hall at 7:00 P.M., the second Tuesday of each month, October through May. 

Our meetings are free, open to the public, and refreshments are encouraged.

The Idaho Outdoor Association is a chartering organization for a Scouting Unit. As more information becomes available we will provide an interest page and schedule a parents meeting. This Scouting unit will focus on outdoor recreation, conservation and outdoor ethics in alignment with the IOA mission.

Mardi Gras Fundraiser Feast

Tuesday, February 17, 2026

6:00 PM – 10:00 PM

@ The Idaho Outdoor Association Hall

Mardi Gras is returning to the IOA Hall! The evening will include traditional Mardi Gras fare, Jell-O shots, Hurricanes and a photo area. Of course, costumes are encouraged! Our entertainment for the evening will be the ever popular and hilarious “Gameshow Rip-Off".

The menu will include; Mardi Gras Salad, Corn Bread, Red Beans and Rice, and Jambalaya. Let's not forget the King Cake! There will also be appetizers, beads, music and lively camaraderie to get the party started.

This year we are doing a silent auction with fun and fabulous prizes. You will probably see something you want, so come prepared to bid!

Admission is: $15 for members, $25 for nonmembers, $30 for nonmember event admission + an IOA membership. The funds raised from this event help to sustain the Idaho Outdoor Association. Thank you for your support.

We ask that everyone leave their K9 friends at home, since there will be too many food temptations. Also, we won't have any activities for children, so they would probably be happier at home.

Thanks for registering and we are looking forward to seeing you!
