    This weekend I'll be going to the covered bridge festival for my first time. As far as I have researched, I don't think i'll have a problem carrying but I don't know for sure. Can anyone give me a definite answer? Thanks

    Where? The bridge festival covers multiple sites in multiple counties. I'd expect some of the property owners to not notice, some to not care, and possibly some might get bent out of shape if they know about it.

    Parke County. I plan on CCing anyway, just not sure if it's on property that is a no-go for carry.

    Some exhibits are on the courthouse lawn. Is the courthouse lawn considered a no go since it is part of the courthouse grounds which does house a courtroom. Or is just the building off limits.

    Again, the festival covers so many different properties, there is no way to answer this question unless we know which places someone intends to go. I don't know of any where it could be illegal to carry, but it's possible some of the property owners or vendors wouldn't like it if they know about it.

    Most of the festivals I've been to were on streets, sidewalks, parks, and such. No issues there. Just avoid school properties (several events had parking at the school - I had to park WAY off-site and walk). Courthouse rules are for the building, not the lawn.

    JFC, and have fun!
