Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore (INDU) is a park unit along the southern boundary of Lake Michigan in Indiana, USA. An inventory of 19 sites, consisting of a seep, 12 streams, four marshes, a bog, and a fen were ex- amined for mayflies (Ephemeroptera), stoneflies (Plecoptera), and caddisflies (Trichoptera) (EPT taxa).

The plan accomplishes this task by: a. focusing interpretive efforts on a site-specifi c theme b. identifying needs for guided and self-guided interpretation, and c. recommending actions to fi ll those needs. The process of developing interpretive recommendations considers three components: a. Resource. What are the natural and cultural resources of the site.? b. Visitor. Who are the current users? What are the untapped audiences? c. Agency. What is the mission of the agency? What are the management goals within the agency? Other regional interpretive experiences and partnerships are incorporated to stretch staff and fi nances, foster cooperation and prevent competition. Several factors make the plan important for Indiana Dunes State Park: • In 2016, Indiana State Parks will be celebrating its 100th birthday. • The Indiana Dunes Nature Center opened int 1990. Most of the exhibits have been unchanged and are showing their age. • Indiana Dunes is unique from other parks. Recommendations need to refl ect: 1. Most of the park’s visitors are day use only.
