2 Camping has become one of America's favorite ways of taking a vacation. With more and more campers taking to the road each year, publicly operated campgrounds can no longer meet the increased demand for campsites. If campgrounds are overcrowded or non-existant in your community, your farm may offer a solution to the problem that will at the same time provide a modest income for your family. The location of your fann determines how suitable it is as a source of camping facilities. If you can answer yes to at least three of the following questions, a campground enterprise would probably be a good risk: 1. Is your farm near a resort or vacation area known for its scenery, climate, or historic interest? 2. Or, is your farm in an area that has possibilities for developing into a region of scenic, cultural, or recreational interest? 3. Is your farm near a good cross-country or interstate highway? 4. Is your farm within 75 miles of a metropolitan center or sizeable city? If campgrounds are already established in your area this need not discourage you. Can they meet the demand? What are the fees? How does what
3 you have to offer compare with what is already available? The campground that provides the best facilities, services, and program opportunities will get the most person-to-person advertising and the most business. People will pay for some degree of privacy, rather than be crowded into a free site. You may already be equipped with the necessary tools and tractors for developing an attractive campground on your farm. A National Rural Family Recreation Seminar decided that these are the basic needs for camper comfort: 1. A level, partially shaded tent site. 2. A picnic table. 3. Adequate and efficient garbage collection. 4. Clean toilets and a supply of pure water within walking distance. 5. A place to build a campfire or cooking fire. 6. Nearby outdoor recreation areas. Ponds, lakes, and pools are especially desirable. 7. A campsite that provides privacy, peace, and contentment in an outdoor setting away from home. The success of a campground and recreation enterprise depends largely on the hospitality, sociability, and resourcefulness of the operator and his family. If you are unsure of your own resources along these lines, you may find it worthwhile to erpploy someone who is trained in recreation programming, leadership, and management.

5 Where do you start? Check with your county farm adviser or local Area Resource Development Committee about the feasibility of such an undertaking. Consult with your county planning or zoning commission; this may save problems later on. Fees Fees for camping units or sites range from $2 to $3 per night, depending on location, facilities, and services offered. State and local regulations Write to the Illinois State Department of Public Health for their bulletin on regulations governing recreation facilities. It will help you in planning water supply and sanitation facilities. Consult with county and state highway officials about access and egress roads, right-of-way observance, and road signs. Local authorities and your insurance counselor will help interpret matters of public liability and protection. Financing Make a preliminary plan, including cost estimates. If you need credit, discuss your plans with your banker. The local Area Resource Development Committee can refer you to appropriate government lending agencies. The current federal farm legislation has provisions for farm recreation business. Ask your local Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service about the possibility of including a campground enterprise in your farm plans. ASCS approval will qualify you for assist.. ance from the Fanners Home Administration, which provides loans for certain farm recreation business enterprises.

Acts approved by Congress May 8 and June 30, 19U. Urbana, Illinois FEBRUARY, M ~ :) ~i~.,.' How to attract campers Once the campsites are ready, invite your local newspaper editor to visit the area. Have him bring his camera, and provide him with the information for a news story. There are a number of camping guides and directories. Copies can be found in local libraries, the county extension office, some gasoline stations, and travel agencies. Write to the editors of these publications and ask about listing your campgrounds. Place a classified ad in the various camping and recreation magazines. You may want to join a campground owners' association for the professional benefits to be gained from learning of the experiences of others. Associations also provide a variety of membership services such as insurance, codes and operation standards, and approved ratings in camp guides and directories. Local and state tourist bureaus can provide lists of such associations. Publish a brochure describing your facilities and services. Include a map for easy location, list your fees, and give your phone number and mailing address. Brochures can be mailed in response to inquiries, or placed in service stations, stores, restaurants, and chambers of commerce. Prepared by E. H. Regnier and K. F. Munson, Extension Recreationists
