THIRD Annual Family Fun Day at Turkey Run State Park
The 2006 inaugural event was chosen as the #1 BEST family activity of all councils in the state of Indiana.
Events include canoeing / kayaking / tubing on Sugar Creek. Camping overnight is a GREAT option for those interested.
The canoe trip is 11.5 miles packed with beautiful scenery, great water, and lots of 'family' splashing. It takes between 3.5 to 5 hours to complete depending how many times we have to fish people out of the creek, upright overturned vessels, and how much time we spend eating lunch.
The cost is $21 per canoe... you can fit 3 in a canoe (especially if the third person is a small child) but 2 works out much better. The cost for a kayak (fits 1) is $17. We will get a 10% discount if we have more than 10 vessels.
You need to wear gear that allows you to get wet.. and you will get wet! Also, bring a cooler for drinks and food for lunch.
Following the canoe trip, we will head into Turkey Run for a cook out. The council will provide meat, buns, condiments, plates, cups, etc. Please just bring a dish to share and drinks. You may also want to bring a lawn chair or two.
We need a head count by May 5th to secure enough vessels because they book up fast and they are usually out of unreserved vessels on the day of our event.
