01/09/13 Outdoor Indiana magazine’s January-February issue takes you inside DNR’s Law Enforcement’s Recruit School.

The school is a 16-week weeding-out process during which recruits undergo four weeks of military-style basic training and 12 weeks of field training with a supervising officer. Readers will find out what it takes to wear the green uniform of an Indiana conservation officer.

The 48-page full-color magazine also includes a photo essay on Indiana’s night sky and a removable eight-page insert on Summit Lake State Park. That article continues the magazine’s series in which one state park or reservoir property will be portrayed through 2016, the 100th anniversary of Indiana state parks. To view a short video on Summit Lake, see
