Stop making excuses. Start making reservations.
I don't have the time.
I don't have the money.
I'll never get anyone to go with me.
It only takes fifteen minutes, about 240 clams and an internet connection to outfit yourself with everything you need for a weekend getaway. In three easy steps, you can organize a "camping party" with your closest.
Step one: visit ReserveAmerica.com and find someplace to go. I suggest 3 nights on Hammonasset Beach for $54. One campsite accomodates 6 people and 2 vehicles. That's nine bucks a person for a three night, four day trip with an ocean view.
Step two: see what's happening on eBay vis-a-vis equipment. You'll need the basics-
2 room, 7 person tent $104.99
Coleman 2 burner camping stove $41.48
battery operated lantern $4.95
queen size air mattress $32.98
Step three: use the Let's Go Camping template at evite to spread the word. You'll probably be surprised at how many people want to join the party.
