The 11th annual Adventures With Nature field day will be held at Tipsaw Lake, on Saturday, June 22.  Indiana Department of Natural Resources Division of Forestry, Perry & Spencer County Soil and Water Conservation Districts and the US Forest Service continue to work  together to present the event.

Activities will get under way at 9:00 a.m. CST and will conclude approximately 1:00 p.m. CST.

This year’s event will bring new fun and exciting challenges for children.  They will have the opportunity to try their hand at target shooting and archery, SCUBA diving (with parental permission), take a bird watching hike, learn styles of outdoor exercising, and make wonderful crafts as they enjoy music and watch a local artist at work.  A presentation at noon will be given by the ever-popular naturalist Susan Fowler.

Farm demonstrations, a flea market, entertainment, raffles, dinners, a quilt show and more are all a part of the the 51st annual Dogwood Festival in Perry County this weekend.

The Southern Indiana Draft Horse and Mule Club will present  old-fashioned farm demonstrations on Saturday and Sunday.

At Leopold Memorial Park, look for chicken and pork-chop dinners Sunday. There will also be a flea market and live entertainment. Serving will start at 10 a.m. For more information, call 843-5036.

The Tell City Ghost Hunters are taking a break from their paranormal searches to help raise money for the Perry County Animal Shelter. 

The event is an opportunity to look for a new furry friend and learn more about the ghost hunting organization. 

Angie Dykes, co-founder of Tell City Ghost Hunters, said the group will be selling hot dogs, chips, bottled water and baked goods. 

So stop by between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. and enjoy a hot dog, while looking for a new dog.
