Forum
Southern Illinois Outdoors is the new forum in town.
Social media isn’t for everyone, and I understand that. Before social media, there were discussion forum communities. These communities had better privacy controls, were more specific to the topics you enjoy, and felt easier to be a part of the community.
I miss that feeling.
While I am active on social media, sometimes it feels like I miss much of what my fans and followers say. And I hate that!
So I created Southern Illinois Outdoors.
Southern Illinois Outdoors is a discussion forum community made for southern Illinois hikers, cyclists, kayakers, canoers, equestrians, and more. There is a community for every outdoorsman and outdoorswoman in southern Illinois on the forum.
The forum respects your privacy. It won’t show ads that spy on you. It doesn’t have some crazy algorithm choosing what it wants you to see. And it’s all focused on southern Illinois outdoors.
Best of all, the forum is free and will always be free. There is no catch. It’s free.
I own the forum, and I want to make it huge.
So, help me out by joining the forum today!
Please Support Hiking with Shawn
Alrighty folks, I hope you have enjoyed this content. I provide it for free and it takes a while to create. If you would be so kind enough to support my efforts, you can do so by sharing this post with others, especially on social media. Be sure to subscribe to my YouTube Channel to see my latest videos, shorts and live streams. Follow me on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and TikTok for unique content that you will only find on those pages. You might also join my Southern Illinois Hiking & Outdoor Resources Group on Facebook, too!
You can also support me by becoming a Patreon Supporter for as little as $3/month and you can cancel anytime (no contracts or catches). Patreons get access to extra features, exclusive articles, sticker packs, gifts and more. Consider buying official Hiking with Shawn Merchandise as another way to support me. I spend a lot of money on Hiking with Shawn and because of extremely high public land permit fees, I make very little money in return so everything helps.
Thanks again for checking out another one of my articles and until next time, I’ll see you on the trail!
