May 2010
Fort Harrison State Park Inn (Indpls) will host their rally in May. This two-day event is still being finalized as there is so much to do and see that we are finding it impossible to narrow down the routes and options.
We can tell you that the first day’s route will be RURAL and take you to some “hidden” sites and Indiana “treasures” via scenic back roads. The second day’s route will be a bit more URBAN as we explore in areas that are a bit more populated.
Accepting reservations starting January 25, 2010. Space is limited.
October 3-5, 2010
Back by popular demand! The dates have been set for another Fall Road Rally for Turkey Run Inn.
For the past three years Turkey Run Inn has been hosting this fall event – and every year it is different and more spectacular.
Though the routes are still being finalized we can promise you some fantastic scenery, great food and fun, and of course the famous covered bridges of Parke County. We hope you can join us!
Accepting reservations starting February 15th, 2010

What is a “On-The Road” Rally Adventure?
FAQ
What is an “ON THE ROAD” rally adventure with the Indiana State Parks?
Remember that Sunday drive, when you piled into the car, and dad drove around while mom pointed out certain things of interest? You rode in the car with the windows rolled down, and you smelled the fresh air. You may have stopped off at a road-side fruit stand for a snack, or indulged in a root beer float or an ice cream at a corner drugstore.
Our adventure is based on these rides. Our goal is to introduce you to areas of Indiana that may be hidden or overlooked – via scenic back roads. We will work in partnership with our talented staff to create both an educational and entertaining route for your two day rally adventure with us.
Your planned routes, driven by you in your TEAM CAR, will have you on a slow-paced Indiana adventure. We will point you in the direction of some Indiana scenic wonders, and we just might have a nice surprise for you along the way.
Each TEAM CAR must have a driver and a navigator. The driver will maneuver the country lanes with its curves and scenic views, while the navigator will provide detailed information to the driver to keep them on the right path. Our ADVENTURE KIT will include a detailed route, as well as a challenge or two to complete while on your adventure.
If your team is feeling competitive, you should go for all the challenges you can. Each correctly completed challenge will be worth points – and points will be tallied at the end of the rally adventure for prizes.
If you team isn’t feeling competitive, well that is ok too! You will enjoy the sights, smells, and sounds of Indiana – and you might have time for that root beer float!
Your Adventure will include:
- Overnight lodging on both Sunday and Monday nights (if chosen).
- Two full days of “On the road” rally adventure in the comfort of your own vehicle.
- Dinners on both Sunday and Monday night.
- Breakfast buffets on Monday and Tuesday morning.
- Unique entertainment will be provided on both Sunday and Monday nights.
- Tuesday night activities will include an awards dinner and ceremony with prizes for our top teams.
- Participants wishing to stay an additional night (Tuesday night) will receive a 25% discount on their lodging.
- Please dress weather-appropriate, as our adventures will happen RAIN or SHINE.
FAQ’s
How long is the route each day?
Each day’s route will be different, and you will be on the road for approximately 4 -6 hours each day.
Will the route be difficult to maneuver?
Your adventure kit will include very specific driving instructions. It will be the responsibility of your TEAM NAVIGATOR to read the directions provided and to watch out for points of interest along the way.
I am allergic to certain foods, will that be a problem?
Absolutely not! If you are booking your adventure with one of our reservation specialists, please let them know and they will make a note of it. If you are making your reservation online, you will be given an option to leave a special message with your reservation.
Will there be gas stations and restroom breaks along the way?
Absolutely! These options will be clearly marked on your route. Your ADVENTURE KIT will clearly highlight all gas station and restroom opportunities.
Could you provide me with a copy of the route BEFORE the Rally Adventure?

What is a CHALLENGE?
Challenges are based upon the information on your route. These challenges may include certain tasks to complete while on the road, or may involve a fact-finding trip for answers.

What types of nightly entertainment do you offer?
Our entertainment options for your event are designed to be informative as well as entertaining. Our options range from local musicians to live encounters with birds of prey.
What items should we bring for this adventure?
