This weekend is labor day weekend, and with the extra day off from work and school, along with the expected beautiful weather, Lake Shelbyville is expecting a huge crowd of people. While the lake itself might be a bit too cold to swim in people still have the option to boat, hike, camp, and more. Ashley Florey, Natural Resource Specialist at Lake Shelbyville said the lake has a lot of events going on this weekend to provide fun for kids and adults including tours, movie nights, and scavenger hunts.

Florey said on Monday Bobber the Water Safety Dog and his friends will be in the Pana Labor Day Parade.

Florey said this is one of the last weekends to go out on the lake as Labor Day signifies the last day of summer, and parts of Lake Shelbyville are closing to the public, but other areas won't close until later in the year.

Florey said there will be extended camping allowed in some areas for hunter to camp on site, but it depends on the weather. She also said all the beaches will be closed starting on September 11th. Florey appeared on the NEWSTALK WTIM Morning Show live from our Shelbyville Studios.
