Smokey Bear’s birthday, Salamonie, July 10 & 11

On July 10, festivities begin at 9 p.m. with a family movie at the modern campground program shelter. On July 11, at 5:30 p.m., gather to decorate the shelter. A bicycle decorating party is at 6 p.m., followed by a parade at 6:45 p.m. At 7 p.m., everyone is invited to enjoy cookies, punch and ice cream.
