National Backyard Campout - June 25th

If you have the gear, why wait?  Maybe for the weather to get a little warmer...brrrr.  But on June 25th, State and National Park Services encourage a National Backyard Campout.  No need to pack up a weeks worth of food for a weekend away.  No need to deal with the "are we there yet?" syndrome.  The kids can invite their friends, even if they wouldn't all fit in the family car.  The possibilities are endless. 

Pitch a tent in your backyard.
Use an approved fire burn pit, or barbeque to roast hot dogs and marshmallows.
Tell ghost stories.
HAVE FUN ~ enjoy your time with the kids.  While simple, it can be a great experience.

AND, when you register your campsite, you'll be able to choose whether you want to set a fund-raising goal. You'll get your own personal page to customize with stories about your own camping experiences or even a treasured photo. Plus you can watch how much money you raise and also send personalized email invites to your friends, family members, co-workers, and neighbors.  National Backyard Campout
