Firewood Cutting Permits at Brookville Lake, Whitewater Memorial



The public is invited to cut up and remove certain downed trees at Brookville Lake and Whitewater Memorial State Park for firewood.

Wood may be cut and removed between 9 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, call the Whitewater Memorial office at 765-458-5565.
