Family Camping Groups

[Shavano]

I've seen a lot of interest in the forum regarding starting, maintaining or folks looking for a camping group. We're going to experiment with a "sticky" at the top of the forum so that people are more able to communicate about this.

Just wondering....

Are there any camping groups in Colorado?

Thanks!

Hey all,

It's that time of year again - The Chandler-Gilbert YMCA Adventure Guides Program is having its annual Swimfest / Enrollment Night.

For those of you who don't know - the YMCA Adventure Guides ( formerly Y-Indian Guides / Princesses ) is a parent - child group that does alot of camping ( once a month or so ) and lots of other activities ( pinewood derby races, etc.. ).

"Official" description - YMCA Adventure Guides is designed to let a Father & Child ( ages 5-12 ) go on a journey together! This Chandler/Gilbert Program helps Dads build relationships with their children through twice monthly activities including home meetings, camping, and group activites.

So... if you have kids ( and like doing things with them ) - come check it out - or PM me with questions.

WHAT: Swimfest / Enrollment Night
WHEN: Sunday August 19th - 5 to 8pm
WHERE: Chandler / Gilbert YMCA -- 1655 W. Frye Rd. , Chandler, AZ.

WEB: www.chandler-guides.com - Father/Son program
www.chandler-princesses.com - Father/Daughter program


As of right now they are only offering the Father/Child programs BUT if there is enough interest they will offer the Mother/Child programs also.

P.S. - I was in the program with my Dad (years ago ) and I have been in this program with all my kids ( over 12 years so far )
Great program - Great people - and you might get to know your kids a little better.

We love to go about anywhere and would love to make new camping buddies. Our children are a 10 year old daughter and 7 year old son. Feel free to reply here or you can PM me anytime.

Hi! We are a family of 4 that loves to go camping. We are a pretty easy going family. We've got two boys (20 months and 5 years old). We love to camp in VA Bch, Eastern Shore, Shenadoah Valley, Luray Caverns, etc..- so if you're a family who likes to camp in these areas and are interested in camping together, please feel free to pm me.

If anyone is aware of a group in our area (Southern VA)that already exists and would be interested in adding another family, please let me know.
