1st Time Campers

We are having a "girls weekend out" camping trip in a couple of weeks. There are 4 of us going & we are all 1st time campers. We are looking for any helpful advice we can find. We have a tent, however, we have no clue what else to bring. We are going to an actual camp ground where they do have a building with potties and showers. Any helpful advice?

Escape for a Weekend Away With Your Kids

For the past 21 years, I have organized a weekend away for dads and their kids. It has been a very enriching experience, bringing together as many as 700 people and seeing old friendships renewed and new ones established. And, while it represents a great opportunity for fathers to spend some quality time with their kids, many think the real winners are the moms who get what for most is a rare break. I highly recommend that others get involved in – even organize – such an activity.
