KONQUER the KISH!! This is a plea for anyone who has helped us clear the Kish in the past to join a MASSIVE clearing effort on Sunday July 16 starting at Hwy 23 and ending at Thorne. The distance by road is 3 miles, but in the middle is 1 mile of MANY treefalls. I stopped counting at 20 last Fall. We need as many chainsaws as possible, and also some non-chainsaw people to help. Everyone needs a kayak. Can you join us? This big project might take a few attempts to get through, but this first one is the trickiest, with no access between Hwy 23 and Thorne. To get more information about equipment drop off, or to sign up, please contact patlawlor117@gmail.com. This is the biggest ask in our 5 years of clearing the Kish, so please volunteer to help on Sunday July 16 and/or Saturday July 22. Let’s Konquer the Kish together, to have all 14 beautiful miles cleared in McHenry County! Thank you in advance for your time and expertise!
