Fishing River was a realitor's delight with beautiful homes. and farms that surrounded the town consisted of a chicken and turley farm. a couple of cattle farms, a horse farm, and a pig farm. Then there were farms that produced vegetables and grains of all kinds. Fishing River was the perfect place to work and raise a family

​ The town's council gave their permission for the section of forest who had been annexed into the city to be sawed down and the land to be used for a very expensive housing edition. and built a nice little bridge over a man made creek that led farther into the outer forest. The bridge became a local hangout for the teenagers in town. Thursday before Labor Day The school district had their

registration day and the students recieved their books and locker number which many of the students put their books in their lockers until the following Tuesday. A group of the high school seniors who had became close friends sat outside at one of the picnic tables and came up with this plan to be able to party one last time before school started. They put their money together and rented a cabin for the weekend using one of their older siblings ID to acess the cabin due to the age limits to keep underage teenages from having parties and getting into trouble with the city officials. Then they decided which parents was the easiest and busiest parents that would give their permission for their children to stay over at their fiends for the weekend without raising a red flag That evening they put their plan into action and the party to end the summer was on the go. That evening they packed their bags and come nine the next morning they walked down to the city park across from the fire station and piled into a van with Daniel's ID which they knew no one would miss since he was stationed overseas and had taken his military ID with him. Daniel drove to the campground and only a couple of the boys went into the office and got the key to the cabin and recieved a list of the rules. They decided since the new rules stated no alcohol on the campground property that they would have.their parties under the new bridge over the man made creek.
