Rock County could purchase Camp Indian Trails and turn it into a county park with camping for youth groups.
A detailed report that lays out the idea is on the agenda of the county boardâs Public Works Committee meeting scheduled for Tuesday.
The report suggests the purchase cost could be between $1.2 million and $1.6 million.
Committee Chairperson Rick Richard said the county is expecting around $31 million from the federal American Rescue Plan legislation, and it appears some of that money could help with the purchase. The opportunity for the county to acquire 180 wooded and recreational acres on the Rock River and open it as a park to county citizens comes along once in a lifetime, and I m hearing support for the purchase from most people I ve talked with in the county, Richard said.
