Iowa’s largest lake is Lake Red Rock. It’s 10 minutes from Pella and 15 minutes from Knoxville. Park Ranger, Tracy Spry, offers insight into the lake, free kid packs, and super-simple water safety tactics. She also tells us how you can tour the inside of the dam and why tours changed after 9-11.

Spry also discusses the difference between CO2 auto-inflating life jackets and foam life jackets, Lake Red Rock’s water safety mascot, a 100ft tower you can climb, and free science, bird, geocaching, tracking, and bug packs for kids. You might also be surprised to know COVID actually created more first time campers.
