My journey began in the Illinois Valley River region, where I cultivated a lifelong passion for the land. I have transformed underperforming farms into thriving properties, driven by a commitment to land stewardship. Today, I proudly present Princeton Game & Fish Club 140 Years. This story captures a legacy of tradition, conservation, and community along the Illinois River.
Nestled along the Big Bend of the Illinois River, this exclusive duck hunting club has thrived for over a century by preserving a legacy of tradition, conservation, and community. In my latest video that I narrate, I explore how the club’s founding principles continue to shape its enduring success. Join me as I delve into a story that every rural landowner can relate to, and discover the remarkable history that mirrors our shared commitment to the land.
A Legacy of Tradition and Conservation
The Princeton Game & Fish Club began in 1884 and calls the Big Bend of the Illinois River home. It thrives with a tight-knit group of 50 members who honor time-tested values. Members elect a board that steers the club. Committees like the Clubhouse and Grounds Committee actively preserve traditions and tackle modern challenges.
