Cool down with DNR this weekend at State Fair

Indiana DNR Release:

With more heat headed our way for the State Fair this weekend, make sure to make the air-conditioned Natural Resources Building a frequent stop during your visit.

On Friday, the DNR’s Roving Naturalist will assist the A.C. by talking about Ice age animals to anyone who’ll listen between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. During the same hours on Saturday, the naturalist will talk about bird watching. Sunday’s 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. subject will be how to Leave No Trace when in the outdoors.

That’s not cool enough for you? On Friday, check information about Lake Michigan shipwrecks from 2 to 4 p.m. on the building’s front porch, the same location at which you can see fly-tying demonstrations from 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday. Sunday at 2 p.m., make sure to have your kids at the building’s Front Porch enjoy the breeze as Smokey Bear blows out candles during his birthday party.
