Maple Fair At Rockville Indiana A Colorful Parke County Event
The Parker county Covered Bridge Association hosts its seventh Maple Fair at the 4 H Fairgrounds north of Rockville Indiana on US 41 March 7 and 8. Guides lead tours to six Parke County mugor camps with routes by bus or car. Sugar water boiling and maple syrup demos accompany hog sausage and pancake meals with a Saturday smorgasbord. Arts crafts, wool spinning, candle making and weaving join market stalls, faced by music and dance performances. A weather caution and a strong local government civics thread run through public notices and history reflections urging citizen involvement.
