Tuscarora & Locust Lake State Parks - Lakeside retreats in the mountains
Throughout this season we’ve featured parks on an individual basis. My thinking has been that every park should have its own episode, letting each park shine on its own. But what if there are parks that are so connected to one another that they shouldn’t be separated?
That brings us to Tuscarora and Locust Lake State Parks.
They are both managed by the same park manager. They are both supported by the same volunteer group. And, they’re located in the same county, less than 10 miles apart.
To speak about Tuscarora State Park is to speak about Locust Lake State Park. And vice versa. So, I figured, we should feature them both in the same episode while giving them their own individual sections.
On this episode, I speak with Jennifer Holman. Jennifer is with the Friends of Tuscarora and Locust Lake State Parks.
