Bookmark+and+Share Indiana News from the DNR

The Indina DNR has an online publication to get people more involved in Indiana. There are some great ideas that will only cost you the gas money and sacked lunch and a park fee. (Less than going out to dinner at any restaurant these days) So go out and enjoy yourself in Indiana, just because winter is approaching doesn't mean you have to lock yourself in your home. For instance got to the Dunes state park and watch 30,000 birds a day (Sandhill Cranes) migrate for the winter.



Or visit McCormicks Creek State Parks new Nature Center,

The new exhibit replaces items that were more than 20 years old, and includes a replica of a cave entrance, a look at the glaciers that covered Indiana, lots of hands-on activities, a diorama with a "turtle run" for live turtles, a kids play space with puppets and books, and exhibits about the families who owned the land before McCormick's Creek was a state park.

Did you know that the Inns at the state parks are two for 1 during off peak months? Heres the info Starting Nov. 30, 2009 and running through Feb. 25, 2010, stay two nights for the price of one (Sunday through Thursday only. Not valid Dec. 20-31, 2009.)
