Next stop on our tour of Vigo County Parks for National Parks and Recreation Month… Fowler Park! This park might be one of the most well-known because of our beautiful Pioneer Village which features 20 pioneer cabins and structures, most of which were relocated to Fowler Park to create our village. Thanks to our volunteer group our village comes to life for events like our Summer in the Village series, Pioneer Days, Mini Pioneer Days and Christmas Walk. We love to showcase the village and our pioneer history to visitors during these events and field trips that can be scheduled throughout the year.
The pioneer village isn’t all Fowler Park has to offer though. In fact, it just is one of many activities in the park. During your visit you can fish in our stocked lake, use our boat or kayak launches for some time on the water, swim at the beach, hike on one of our several trails, bird or wildlife watch, play basketball in the goals the Beach Parking Lot or get plenty of playtime in on one of our playgrounds! We even have jon boat and kayak rentals available at our Beach House daily Memorial Day through Labor Day. You can rent your jon boat, kayak or a shelter right on our website.
For those who want to stay longer can do so in our campground. It has 10 primitive sites, 33 electric sites, 15 electric and direct water hook up sites, a pioneer cabin and starting next year a covered wagon! Be sure to come visit Fowler Park for your next family adventure.
