Starke County Park Board to Receive Update on Five-Year Plan

The Starke County Park Board will get an update tonight on the county’s five-year parks and recreation plan. The Mishawaka-based Troyer Group has been hired to gather input from residents and put the plan together.

It’s expected to focus on the Bass Lake Beach and Campground, Koontz Lake, the Starke County Forest and the trail system. A draft of the plan is due to the Indiana Department of Natural Resources by this Sunday, in order for Starke County to be eligible for DNR grants this year.

Tonight’s Starke County Park Board meeting starts at 6:00 p.m. in the Annex Building meeting room.
