camping trip
What: camping trip
When: August 14-15
Where: Ouabache (pronounced like "Wabash")
We will be taking a camping trip for anyone who wants to join. We will be camping at Ouabache.
Ouabache
4930 E. St. Rd. 201
Bluffton, IN 46714
260-824-0926
Ouabache is difficult to spell, but easy to pronounce. Simply say 'Wabash'...just like the river that forms the southwest boundary for the park. This is the French spelling of an Indian word, so don't be surprised to hear some folks call it "o-ba-chee."
Kunkel Lake offers excellent fishing. During the summer months, a naturalist will provide information about the natural wonders of the park. A lodge recreation building is ideal for special gatherings and is now available all year.
