Friends of Shimek State Forest

The purpose of the Friends of Shimek is to support the DNR staff in developing and maintaining the Shimek campgrounds and equestrian trails consistent with good forestry practices and the protection of our state's natural resources. The Lick Creek Unit has two public equestrian campgrounds with over 25 miles of trails for equestrians, bicyclists and hikers in Shimek's Lick Creek Unit. The two primitive campgrounds are White Oak and Bitternut Campgrounds.

Ann Bennett, Bonnie Moothart and hubby Doug, were hosts to the Iowa DNR Director Kayla Lyon and Assistant Director Alex Moon for a trail ride in Shimek. Ann (past president of Friends of Shimek) provided horses for our guests, and Bonnie (board member) and Doug (valued volunteer) rode along to assist the riders. After our lovely ride in 70+ degree temperatures thru the lovely fall foliage and sunshine, Bonnie and Doug provided lunch of drinks and snack style foods.
