Located in a region where the Potawatomi Indians ruled for many years, Pokagon State Park takes its name from the last of the Indiana Potawatomi tribal leaders, Simon Pokagon. The park. a winter recreational resort with a 1,700-foot-long toboggan slide, also offers summertime boating, fishing, and hiking.

This icon shows a lively tangle of human figures descending a steep slope on a toboggan. Each figure is intertwined with the next, so it appears to be one single, complex entity.

Designers Jeff Laramore and David Jemerson Young of 2nd Globe, an Indianapolis–based artistic company, designed all 92 of the county sculptures featured on the outside of the Indiana State Museum. Their designs narrate the counties’ famous natives, historically significant events, or their cultural characteristics, and were fabricated and installed by various Indiana sculptors, carvers, glassworkers, metalworkers, and other artisans.
