Memorial Day

Memorial Day is a popular time to go camping and enjoy the outdoors. Here are some ideas to make the most of your Memorial Day at any of our campgrounds:

Ideas

1. Decorate your campsite: Show your patriotism and honor the holiday by decorating your campsite with American flags, banners, or other patriotic decorations. Join us at Madison Campground for RV decorating.
2. Attend campground events: Many campgrounds organize special events and activities for Memorial Day weekend. Check with the campground to see if they have any planned activities such as live music, cookouts, or games.
3. Have a campfire cookout: Memorial Day is a great time to gather around the campfire and have a cookout. Grill up burgers, hot dogs, and other favorite barbecue foods. Don’t forget the s’mores for a classic campfire treat!
4. Go hiking or biking: Take advantage of the natural surroundings and explore the hiking or biking trails near the campground. Enjoy the beauty of nature and the fresh air.
5. Relax by the water: If the campground has a lake or a river, spend some time relaxing by the water. Go swimming, fishing, or simply enjoy the view while lounging on the beach. Camp Lakewood Campground has a beautiful lake to enjoy all these activities.
6. Go swimming: If the campground does not have a lake or river, consider using a pool instead. Terre Haute Campground, Madison Campground, Meramec Campground, and Knoxville Campground all have great pools for you to enjoy.
7. Reflect and honor: Take a moment to reflect on the true meaning of Memorial Day and honor the men and women who have served in the military. Consider visiting a local memorial or participating in a moment of silence to pay your respects.

Remember to follow campground rules, practice Leave No Trace principles, and be considerate of other campers during your Memorial Day weekend camping trip. We look forward to seeing everyone this Memorial Day!
