Recreation
Tippecanoe Lake is used mostly for recreational purposes such as fishing, boating and skiing and is surrounded by mostly expensive residential housing. A prominent historical location is situated on the SW shore of the lake; Tippy Dance Hall. Once a traditional concert hall which hosted acts such as Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, and the 60's act The Byrds, Tippy Dance Hall is now a teen dance club with Saturday night dances held from Memorial Day to just after Labor day.

Famous quotes containing the word recreation:
“Media mystifications should not obfuscate a simple, perceivable fact; Black teenage girls do not create poverty by having babies. Quite the contrary, they have babies at such a young age precisely because they are poor—because they do not have the opportunity to acquire an education, because meaningful, well-paying jobs and creative forms of recreation are not accessible to them ... because safe, effective forms of contraception are not available to them.”
—Angela Davis (b. 1944)
“Playing snooker gives you firm hands and helps to build up character. It is the ideal recreation for dedicated nuns.”
—Archbishop Luigi Barito (b. 1922)
