Great American Backyard Campout

The National Wildlife Federation is promoting the annual summer-long Backyard Campout on June 25. This event encourages families to camp in the backyard to form bonds with family members. All you have to do is pick a place, whether it’s in your backyard or at a state park, and set up a tent. Do this with friends, family, or even host a camping group for your neighborhood to join you.
Take the pledge at nwf.org and help reach the goal of 100,000 campers.
