LA: Tickfaw State Park reopens to campers after flood

(Feb. 16, 2017) -- Tickfaw State Park near Springfield was closed altogether for months due to the Great Flood of 2016, which flooded the 1,200-acre park with as much as 12 feet of water. It reopened for day use Dec. 1, but it was two months later before the park could be open for overnight campers.
