The event is FREE, and EVERYONE is welcome! Please bring a dish to share (post a "Will Attend" log if you're planning to come, along with the dish you plan to bring.) The event will be rain or shine! It's a good idea to put the event on your watchlist in case there are any updates. Unfortunately the park does not allow pets.
Join us at 11am for a day of fun including caching, talking, eating, and friendship. We'll also have a brief "business" meeting to go over what's happening with the MGS. Several new caches will also be placed for the event. We'll be in the Lake House Shelter which provides a fanstastic view of the lake!
"Popular for picnicking and camping, New Germany State Park lies within the boundaries of Savage River State Forest. The 13-acre lake was formed when Poplar Lick Run was dammed for mill operation. This impoundment, known as Swauger's Mill Dam, was named for mid-nineteenth century sawmill and gristmill builder, John Swauger."

Camping arrangements can be made by phone 1-888-432-2267 or online. There are spots for tents, campers, and cabins are also available. If you choose to camp and are using a tent, consider "tent pooling" with someone since most sites are built to handle two tents. You can also choose local lodging through any of the hotels available.
