McCall Dam State Park
http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateparks/parks/mccallsdam.aspx
In 1850, an early settler built a dam on White Deer Creek to provide power to his large sawmill and shingle mill. Sixteen years later the dam was repaired and used as the second of a series of splash dams, used to float white pine logs to the Susquehanna River and the extensive sawmills at Watsontown. Although the dam is gone, Johnny McCall and his dam will always be remembered because of McCall Dam State Park.

McCall Dam State Park is in the extreme east end of Centre County. It can be reached by travelling McCall Dam state forest road which links Route 192 at R. B. Winter State Park and Route 880 at Eastville. McCall Dam is administered by R. B. Winter State Park, which is three miles to the south.

The meadow-like, rustic group tenting area is for qualified adult and youth groups. This area has rustic toilets and a parking area. One responsible adult leader or counselor (18 years of age or older) is required to accompany each ten campers. Winter accessibility is limited to snowmobiles or cross-country skiing.
