Three areas in the park including the one acre demonstration prairie plot, about 50 acres in the extreme northwest corner of the park, and about 60 acres of the Swamp Rose Nature Preserve in the northeast corner, are scheduled to be the first sites in this program. These sites will undergo perscribed bums when a narrow range of fire safety conditions are met, probably in March or early April. The prairie plot was planted in 1991 with a seed mix donatedd by the Garden Club of Indiana. Prairies made up of plants such as these were historically found in northwest Indiana. One of the conditions needed to maintain these original prairies was periodic fire. Fires ignited by lightning or Native Americans kept out invading woody plants and maintained the rich soil for the prairie grasses and flowers. This site will be burned for these same reasons. Grasshopper Sparrows, Henslow’s Sparrows andd Bobolinks are birds that live in grassy fields and have been seen at Potato Creek in the past. Due to the successions! changes (the changing from grassy fields to brushy fields) these birds have not been seen at the park for over three years. The perscribed bum in the northwest corner of the park will help maintain an area for these birds and other wildlife species that require grassy fields to live.

r The northeast comer of the park was dedicated as the Swamp Rose State Nature Preserve because of I some of the unusual plants found there in the open marshy area. These plant communities are in danger of being lost due to invad- [ ing woody plants shading them out. i Burning this site will help preserve these rare plants for future gcneri ations to enjoy. Prescribed bums are fires intentionally set under very strict r safety guidelines to accomplish a specific management objective. The sites are prepared ahead of time with firebreaks constructed and detailed contingency plans made. Among the things considered in the planning of a prescribed bum are fire control, wildlife safety, and smoke dispersion. Even after all of the plans and firebreaks are made, the bums are not implemented unless a specific set of weather conditions maximizing the control and safety of the fire are met. If you have any questions about this new habitat management plan, feel free to contact the park at (219)656-8186.
