Memorial Day weekend events feature
hay press, music pinochel tournament


Pioneer life is featured May 29 at Wyandotte Woods.

If watching racecars go around an oval doesn’t appeal to your family this Memorial Day Weekend, try the camaraderie of Hoosier kin at DNR facilities throughout Indiana.

Hay press demonstrations, pioneer farm life, a pinochle tournament, karaoke, a band concert and a Memorial Day service are featured at our state historic sites, state recreation areas, parks and reservoirs.
