Some Camping Tips
-
Never have an open flame inside any tent (lanterns, fires, lighters, etc.)
-
Do not leave food open, especially at night - this will only invite animals.
-
Place clothing in zip-top bags to keep dry.
-
For drive-up camping - don’t be afraid to bring extra supplies, you can always leave things in your car.
-
Check the weather but ALWAYS be prepared for bad weather just in case.
-
Make it FUN!
