Senior Luncheon at the Salamonie Lake Interpretive Center
The Senior Luncheon will be held at noon, March 6 at the Salamonie Lake Interpretive Center, located in Lost Bridge West SRA. Anyone age 50 or older is welcome to attend. As part of a Historic Preservation Fund grant, archaeologists from the Applied Anthropology Laboratories, Ball State University, explored part of nearby Salamonie River State Forest in Wabash County during the summer of 2025. Attend this presentation at the Salamonie Interpretive Center in Lost Bridge West to learn about the results of this project.
The public presentation will review project goals, objectives, and results of the survey and will focus on what the features and artifacts tell us about precontact and historic land use in what is now Salamonie River State Forest and the surrounding area. Archaeologists will have artifacts from the surveys available to view and will show images that highlight their field and laboratory methods.
This project was funded in part by a grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service’s Historic Preservation Fund administered by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology.
The program begins with a carry-in meal at noon. Guests should bring a side dish to share, a beverage, and their table service. The main lasagna dish will be provided. A donation will be accepted to help defray costs.
Seating is limited. Reservations may be made by calling 260-468-2127.
The program with Upper Wabash Interpretive Services is located at 3691 New Holland Road, Andrews, 46702.
