Ready for an Indiana State Park Adventure?

Are you ready to embark on an unforgettable journey through Indiana’s beautiful state parks? Whether you’re a seasoned explorer or a first-time adventurer, we have just the thing to enhance your outdoor experience: the HMMPL Adventure Backpack!

What’s Inside the HMMPL Adventure Backpack? 

  • One Indiana State Park Pass: Free entry for everyone in your vehicle to an Indiana State Park in partnership with the Department of Natural Resources 
  • Binoculars: Enjoy broad landscapes or spotting things from afar! Includes one adult and one child sized pair of binoculars. 
  • Magnifying Glasses: Get a closer look at your discoveries and make new observations! 
  • Field Guides: Use these laminated identification guides as you are on the lookout for native wildlife, birds and flora! 
  • Nature Journal: Encourage your budding naturalist to share your observations and memories with other HMMPL nature enthusiasts in this shared journal.  
  • Fun Activity Cards: Keep the excitement going with activity cards filled with seek and find games and challenges for all ages. 

These convenient backpacks are ready for your family to check-out at both the Zionsville and Whitestown HMMPL branches.  Backpacks check out for 7 days with no renewals and must be returned to the circulation desk from the branch it was borrowed from.

Thank you to the Friends of the Library for making this new adventure possible!

So, pack your backpack, grab your loved ones, and set out on an exciting journey filled with exploration, fun, and connection to nature. Let’s make your next outing in Indiana unforgettable! Happy exploring! #IndianaStateParks #IndianaDNR #HMMPLAdventureBackpack #DiscoverHMMPL
