Joan

Hi! My name is Joan Hansston. I heard about Pyramid State Park, and realized I pass right by it on the way home from school. So I decided to take Woodsy with me for a quick look at the place. What a coincidence that SIU previously used the original 924 acres of reclaimed surface-mine land for research. In 1968 Illinois turned it into a recreation area. Since then they've expanded the area to 19,000 acres, making it the LARGEST state park in Illinois...All this virtually in my own back yard! You’ll never guess who we ran into while we were there…
