THIS WILL BE A COLORFUL AND FESTIVE FAMILY EVENT Bring your grand-kids; carpool with your neighbors and friends. Express your love for the natural world; This is a GREAT opportunity! Get your picture taken with Tatanka! Join local celebrity musician Tim Grimm!! This program highlights the historical and natural value of the Buffalo Trace and the Hoosier National Forest, provided by Steven Stewart of the Protect Our Woods. Thousands of travelers took this trail headed west during the early 19th century. Items of national significance connected to the Trace are abundant in the Buffalo Springs area. Buffalo Spring-Field Campaign Coordinator Steven Stewart says the national historical significance of the area only strengthens OUR commitment to protecting the area set to be disturbed by the US Forest Service’s Buffalo Springs proposal. Efforts to create a permanent status for protection of the Buffalo Trace and the Lick Creek Settlement are being pursued by the Buffalo Trace Preservation Group, Indiana University, the Roberts, Thomas, and Bonds Historical Society and many others across the state.
