NEW SITES TO OPEN BY AUGUST AT STATE PARK

The Inde­pen­dence Dam State Park, with the help of some area Boy Scouts, plans to reopen 15 non-electric camp­ing sites after the sites were closed down 10 years ago. Each site will have a fire ring, pic­nic table and clear view of the river.

There will be three camp­ing spaces strictly for RVs and a max­i­mum of six peo­ple to each site.

The sites are set to open in August to the gen­eral public.
