Cleveland Metroparks is not usually available for camping
experiences to the general public. But, this month, the Park
District offers two fun camping experiences.
One is designed especially for grandparents and grandchildren
with a twist, and one for the entire family as part of a
nation-wide camping experience:
Grand Non-Campout
Friday, June 25 � 5:30 - 9:30 p.m.
South Chagrin Reservation
The Great American Campout is this weekend, but this is a great
alternative for grandparents and their young counterparts. Hit all
the fun parts of a campout: cooking out, hiking, exploring, and
even a tent! But, then, go home to sleep comfortably in your own
bed. Registration is required, and space is limited. This program
is for children, ages 3 to 7 with grandparents or seniors.
Directions and pertinent information will be sent upon
registration. There is a $3 fee per person. For more information
and to register, call 440-247-7075 or register on-line at target="_blank" href=

by June 17.
Great American Campout
Saturday, June 26 � 6:30 p.m. to Sunday
morning,
June 27
South Chagrin Reservation
Back for the sixth year: the National Wildlife Federation (NWF)
invites families to camp under the stars! It's all part of the
NWF's Be Out There program, to encourage families to spend
more time outdoors. Cleveland Metroparks offers the chance to spend
an awesome evening camping out in South Chagrin Reservation.
Saturday night will be full of fun outdoor activities camping out
in the park, and wrap up with breakfast on Sunday morning.
Registration is required, and space is limited. This program is for
families with children, ages 8 years and older. Directions and a
list of things to bring, including a tent, will be sent upon
registration. There is $5 fee per person ($20 maximum per family).
For more information and to register, call 440-247-7075 or register
on-line at "mailto:lalreg@clevelandmetroparks.com">lalreg@clevelandmetroparks.com
by June 17.
Be part of a great camping weekend in Cleveland
Metroparks - part of your life, naturally.
