Ensure that trash and recyclables are properly disposed of in the bins supplied. When there is no more space in the bins, pack it out or carry it with you when you leave. Don’t keep your journey a secret from others; if you have an accident, you won’t be able to obtain aid because the campground’s connection isn’t as strong as the city’s. Before you go on your camping trip, make sure you have everything you need. A first-aid kit, compass and maps, and emergency tools are all essential items to have in your backpack. Don’t leave leftover dishes on the campground and depart, this will bring wild animals to the campground and this will cause problems for other campers Before bringing your pet to the campground, make sure you read the rules and restrictions. Certain campgrounds do allow guests to bring their pets with them but if you’re bringing your pet, don’t forget to bring a leash, a tether, a collapsible water bowl, and lots of food. Don’t let your kid run around other campsites. This is to avoid disturbing other campers and to avoid them getting injured at the campsites. Make sure you arrive at the campground before nightfall because setting up a tent in the dark will be complicated even for seasonal campers. Don’t leave your fire smouldering overnight, unattended it might cause an accident. If you’re going camping, make sure you wear rubber shoes because sports shoes may not last long if they get wet or muddy. Don’t head out to the campground before you have done any research about the campground.
