Ny MACY ITEMS The orchestra who played for the dances at the new dance pavilion at Lake Nyona is composed of Mrs. P. B. Carter, pianist and Robert Wilson, cornetist, of Macy, George Howard and Ray;mond Clay of Rochester, and two other young men from Rochester whose names were not learned. [The News-Sentinel, Rochester, Indiana, Saturday, October 31, 1925] [Adv] NEW YEAR’S DANCE, Lake Nyona. Sunday, January 1, 1933. 2- RED HOT ORCHESTRAS-2. Buel Townsend and his music and Oriental Rhythm Kings. Dancing 8:30 until ??. No advance in prices. [The News-Sentinel, Friday, December 30, 1932] TRAILER CRASHED THRU BRIDGE AT LAKE NYONA A large tractor and trailer which was loaded with tile crashed through the east span of the double bridge at Lake Nyona shortly after 8 o’clock Monday mo rning. The tractor was being driven by William Lutes of Portland, who is employed by a Portland tile factory. Luckily for Lutes he escaped without injury. The bridge is constructed of steel with a plank flooring which is covered with creosote blocks. It was inspected recently and found to be in good condition. Lutes had practically driven over the bridge east bound. The wheels of the tractor were on the ground at the east approach of the bridge when the bridge flooring gave way under the weight of the heavily loaded trailer, dropping it into the waters of Lake Nyona. Workmen tried all day to pull the trailer out of the water and onto the ground at the east end of the bridge. It was lucky for Lutes that the collapse of the bridge did not take place near the center of the structure as he probably would have been drowned in the cab of the tractor as the water at the point is about ten feet deep. The Lake Nyona road is a heavily traveled county unit road. It will probably take several weeks to repair the bridge and it is possible that a temporary span will be erected during the time the bridge is being rebuilt. [The News-Sentinel, Monday, March 28, 1938] ELECTRIC LIGHTS FOR NYONA LAKE BRIDGE <strong>Fulton</strong> county commissioners in their reglar session, Sept. 5th, will receive bids on an electrical lighting system for the Nyona lake bridge and also on 50 tons of Indiana block coal for the county farm. [The News-Sentinel, Tuesday, August 22, 1939] __________ Formerly known as North Mud Lake, but name changed in 1921, by John Shafer of Kokomo. Nyona was the given name of Mrs. Shafer and also their daughter, and their son, Eldorado Shafer, and his wife lived there and operated a restaurant. At that time there were only two cottages on the lake. The Collins one-room school was a mile north and after it closed about 1925, John Shafer tore it down and built cottages with the lumber. Maloney’s restaurant and beach operated for many years, but the restaurant became Heckathorn’s Country Inn and the beach was closed. Other businesses include Rance’s bait houses, Anthony Knoll real estate, Heckathorn repair, and on South Mud Lake is Webster’s florist shop and Reid’s bait house. The Nyona Lake Dance hall, located 150 feet west of the bridge on the south side of the road, was constructed by a corporation formed by Louis Chevrolet and Cannonball Baker of racing car fame, Louis Wolfhanger, the pinball king, who furnished the money, and John Shafer
Ny and a Mr. Faust, who furnished the land. Bands from nearby towns and cities, including Rochester, furnished the music. It was a very popular and noisy place in the prohibition days. After the old bridge collapsed on March 28, 1938, the present bridge was built. In the 1950’s free outdoor movies were held every Tuesday and Saturday evening. Today the Nyona Lake Civic Association sells memberships and takes care of the street lights. The Fish and Game Club has it own building and grounds to hold turkey shoots and suppers. The Nyona Lake Boosters Club helps promote improvements. Liberty Township has a fire station at Speck’s Garage on Old US-31, a mile east of the lake. Nyona Lake children attend Caston School. The mailing address is R.R. 1, Macy. [Nyona Lake, Fletchers Lake, Shirley Willard, <strong>Fulton</strong> Co Folks, Vol. 2, Willard] NYONA LAKE BOOSTERS CLUB [Liberty Township] See Nyona Lake.
