This Saturday the youth hunting season starts in Illinois. Several of the private lands surrounding the Kish are owned and used specifically for hunting throughout the fall season. I would not recommend being in or around the Kish for the rest of the fall for your own safety. We can continue to dream about a clear Kish on which to paddle, and do paperwork and make other connections during the winter. We’ll get back at it in the spring. Our 700 volunteers are awesome! Thank you to everyone who pitched-in this summer!
