Our organization started as a simple idea back in early 2003; how to help improve the way of life  of the water fowler here in Virginia. Shortly thereafter, a small group of sportsmen began to converse and discuss the best way to implement the idea. After many long hours and dedicated hard work, a fledgling organization was born, the Virginia Waterfowlers' Association. As the name implies, we are an organization that strives to help in all aspects of the waterfowler's sport. If you read our mission statement, you will see that we want to promote all aspects of the waterfowlers' way of life, including educating sportsmen, protecting habitat, teaching our youth, and protecting our rights.  We are all volunteers at the VAWFA, and no member receives any compensation for the work that they do. We are always looking for worthy projects, and welcome our membership's participation at all events. The VAWFA has worked with the VDGIF on several projects including goose bandings, habitat restoration, and youth hunts.
