Hockey Mom Running for Senate Seat In Wisconsin Recall Election Tues 8/16


Kim Simac owns a small business in which she raises and trains horses. Together she and her husband raised 9 children in the Eagle River area. They enjoy their 8 grandchildren and work hard to keep the Northwoods a vibrant place where families such as theirs can continue.

Kim is also a former radio host and an award winning author and publisher of patriotic children’s books. Her dedication to promoting American principles and values has established Kim as a nationally recognized public speaker. Kim is also a board member of the Northwoods Angelican Foundation, a board member of the Northwoods Hunter Jumper Circuit, a member of the United State Equestrian Federation and the NRA.

She is the founder of the Northwoods Patriots located in Eagle River. She is the 1st Vice Chair of the Vilas County Republican Party and President of the Republican Women of the North. When Jim Holperin ran away instead of fighting for the people of the Northwoods, Kim led the effort to gather more than 23,000 signatures to recall him.

Kim was overwhelmed by the positive reaction the recall received and by the many people who enthusiastically urged her to run. Kim considers the position as an elected official to be one of duty and honor, not a career. She decided to run because she knows the Northwoods needs a voice that isn’t afraid of challenges and a voice that won’t run away from the responsibility of representing the people of the 12th District in Northern Wisconsin.
