Get Involved: The Great American Backyard Campout!

 

What are you doing this weekend? Join thousands across the country in The Great American Backyard Campout on Saturday, June 25th to help benefit the National Wildlife Federation.  More importantly support some good old-fashioned outdoor fun.  Whether you camp in your backyard, a local campground, or backpack the Presidential Range...the goal is to BE OUT THERE! 

Studies show that kids who spend time outdoors benefit in countless ways: better grades, improved eyesight, healthier lungs, stronger bones, and less risk for childhood obesity.  Start teaching your kids how to enjoy the great outdoors this weekend and make them smarter, healthier kids...and aside from all that; every kid needs to know how to catch fireflies and make the perfect s'more!

Stay tuned early next week for a post about our backyard weekend with my amazing niece Rachele...lots of s'mores and games ahead of me this weekend...

What are you waiting for?! GET OUT THERE!!!
