Description
We have teamed up with Warrick County and have picked a terrific venue for our event. Scales Lake Park, located in Boonville, has 479 acres of mostly wooded property as well as a 66 acre lake. In existence since the 1940s, their services have grown to include a 100 site campground, a swimming beach with waterslides, a petting zoo with free-roaming animals, numerous picnic areas and cabin rental.
