Campgrounds are closed in Iowa, but you can still enjoy a backyard campout! If you love s’mores, campfire stories and sleeping in a tent, check out these planning ideas, a list of supplies and more to help you plan for a backyard camping adventure! Not into the great outdoors? No problem - set up a campground in your living room or basement! Just keep it to members of your own household, please. Disregard the note in the article that says to "Call friends and family and invite them to join in." 

Just for fun, post photos and tag Waukee Parks & Recreation with pictures of your best camping setup and any fun activities you participate in.
