New additions have made their way to Lake Shelbyville and its various campgrounds. New restroom facilities have been added near Dam East and the final pit toilet has been replaced, making all Shelbyville Campgrounds equipped with proper bathrooms.

Ashley Florey is a Park Ranger and Natural Resources Specialist with the US. Army Corps of Engineers, she says there is still plenty of time to reserve a space at one of the many campgrounds.

Fishermen are in for a new, helpful fish-cleaning station. One is already installed and operating at Lithia Springs, Lake Shelbyville. Florey notes that the old system of one dumpster for fish remains was not working, this new cleaning station will be much more efficient, come spawning season.

Florey wants the public to know that Coon Creek and Lone Point Campgrounds are still closed and have been the entire season. Florey believes the campgrounds will be back open before this camping season ends.

Lake Shelbyville is a sure place for activity all summer long and camping season will extend into the fall. Florey wants the community to come out to Lake Shelbyville to see and use the new facilities.
