Caston is located between Rochester and Logansport, Indiana, on State Road 25, 3 miles south of the town of Fulton, on the Cass/Fulton County Line. There are no restaurants in the area without going into either Logansport or Rochester, which are about 12 miles away. There is a  Dollar General and mini-mart gas station located in Fulton. 

There wil be a concessions stand available for the competition, but it will have limited options for lunch. Teams are invited to order in pizza which will be delivered to the school.
