Rock Island County Forest Preserve District has begun the 2015 camping season, and Loud Thunder and Illiniwek forest preserves are now open. The Forest Preserve District has made some significant changes to the way Loud Thunder and Illiniwek operate so when you visit the preserves be sure to stop in at the camp office prior to setting up at a campsite.

Only firewood that meets the State (Illinois Department of Agriculture) & Federal
(USDA) certifications and labeling requirements is allowed to be brought onto District
premises. All unauthorized firewood may be removed and destroyed by District staff.
Firewood that is in compliance with this ordinance can be purchased at both Loud Thunder and Illiniwek.
