FAMILY CAMPING - Family camping can be an economical vaction says Kathi Heberer, McHenry county Extension aHviopp With the state of the economy, many families may find it necessary to reevaluate their vaction plans this sum mer. One alternative Heberer suggests is family camping at one of the northern Illinois 4-H camps. A family can live in a cabin or in their own tent or camper, meals are prepared by the camp food service and served in a dining hall so parents can enjoy their vaction free from chores. The camp program staff will be on duty at all times to supervise activities, such as nature hikes and campfire programs, and to teach crafts, swimming, canoeing, rafting, volleyball, and other sports. The program provides plenty of free time so every member of the family can "do his own thing", whether fishing, sun bathing, or reading, says Heberer. Since no camping gear is required, and the fees include meals, lodging, and equipment, family camping is an economical vacation. Camps sites and the dates of family camping are: White Eagle 4-H camp, Adeline, 111., off Highway 72, southwest of Rockford ~ June 23-25, July 14- 16; and Shaw-waw-nas-see 4-H camp, near Kankakee River State park, off Highway 102, west of Kankakee - July 1 - 4, and July 21 - 23.
