With the season pretty much up...........when are the parks actually closing? I was looking up something for Matthiessan park and seen this on thier website: http://dnr.state.il.us/lands/Landmgt/PARKS/R1/mttindex.htm#Horseback Does this mean the horse trails don't officially close this year until 11/21/08? I did not / could not find an actual "season end" date on the site. Franklin Park's site does not have an open/close date listed either: http://dnr.state.il.us/lands/Landmgt/PARKS/R1/Franklin.htm BTW - this is a list of all the places Alcohol is NOT permitted and dates of partial alcohol prohibitions ; > http://www.dnr.state.il.us/lands/landmgt/Parks/AlcoholBan96.htm
See...........Me too......but I've had people tell me lately that some parks stay open until the end of Nov. I've been looking for proof either way - but can't find it. I'm starting to think I need to call each place, that I might be willing to trailer to during the colder weekends, just to get the straight poop. I rode with someone, on Sat morning, that said she rides at F.C. over the thanksgiving holiday all the time........... ???
yeah I just tried to call and most info says through October, but nobody was there to pick up the phone to confirm.
I think each park is differnet for some reason ... I think all camping is closed as of Nov 1st and then from there who knows
sandcreek is well mapped it is not a state park so is safe from blogo those closed by our darling criminal governor are now officially permanently closed if we can get rid of him I think we can count on lt gov to reopen them all in the spring
