The work that is put into maintaining the
trails by the volunteers alone adds up into
hundreds of hours! The park is beautiful
with the lake as a focal point. There are so
many things about this race that make it
one to put it on your list of races to do. From
the Race Directors who treat you like family
to the volunteers that man the hard-to-get-
to aid stations. I truly recommend this!”
In addition to these many wonderful events
outdoor sports enthusiasts can enjoy fish-
ing and hunting. From trout fishing at Spur
Pond and muskie fishing at Hazel Creek
Lake to catching bass and catfish at Thou-
sand Hills State Park’s Forest Lake Kirksville
is a anglers paradise. Hunters travel from
all over the United States to enjoy hunting
trophy class whitetail deer and turkey.
Hunters have a choice to hunt on over
13,000 acres of Conservation Area and
hundreds of acres of private land surround-
ing Kirksville.

tions and events in Kirksville go to
