Hello Spring! The Lehigh Township Historical Centre Museum has been closed to the public for a long time due to the pandemic and sadly will continue to be for the foreseeable future. The museum is closed this year due to a space issue, not COVID. We will not be holding museum open house tours at the Historical Centre this summer. We had to store the all of the items for our Basket Social that was cancelled last spring and will not be held until later this year. That said, we are resuming our regular meetings and fundraising

Items from old businesses; old political items; farm, household and personal items; books; calendars and newspapers that have been stashed in the back of a drawer or closet may be great things to donate to our museum and share with others for a flashback to the past!

If you want to learn how to go camping for the first time there is a lot to know, but don’t worry— it’s not hard to be a happy camper. We were all beginners once, and expert campers could each share a funny anecdote about a campground mishap or two. New campers sometimes learn things the hard way, and even experienced campers overlook things from time to time. Remember these common mistakes of new campers, and learn how to become a smart camper with the best advice and tips for your first time camping.
Become Familiar With Your Gear
New campers usually wait until they get to the campground before they try out new gear. It’s not uncommon to watch campers fumble for hours trying to figure out how to set up a tent. Practice really does make perfect. Set up tents in your backyard before taking them camping. Check the operation of lanterns and camp stoves to make sure they work properly. Try your sleeping bag one night on the living room floor to see how well you sleep in it.
Buy a Tent That Is Big Enough
New campers frequently find themselves in a crowded tent. Make space and comfort a priority in your choice of tents (unless you’re backpacking). Most tents fit in a car trunk, so size and weight aren’t a major concern. For family camping get a tent with a capacity rated two higher than the number of campers that will use it. So for a family of two, get a 4-person tent, for a family of four a 6-person tent, and so on.
Make (and Use) a Checklist
New campers often overlook a checklist. It’s no fun getting to the campground and finding out that you forgot something. Stay organized and make sure nothing is left behind by keeping a camping gear checklist. Use it while packing and check off each item. Update and revise the list as needed. If something breaks or wears out, replace it. If something really doesn’t get used, take it off the list.
Arrive at the Campground Early
New campers will probably be unfamiliar with campground amenities and rules. You’ve never been camping, how are you supposed to know? Arrive early enough to give yourself time to learn the campground layout. Make your campground neighbors happy and set up camp during daylight hours. It’s much easier when you can see what you’re doing.
Plan Your Meals
New campers don’t always put enough thought into meal planning. Figure out how many meals you’ll be making for how many people, and put together some menu ideas. Then do your grocery shopping a day or two before departure so that the food will be fresh.
Observe Campground Rules
New campers may not realize that there is no real privacy in a campground. Sound travels so well that you can usually hear campers whispering at the next site. One noisy campsite can keep dozens of campers from a good sleep. Please observe quiet hours. The little privacy you have is limited to your campsite. Respect the space that other campers have chosen, and don’t walk through another campsite to get someplace.
Learn to Reverse Your RV in Advance
Don’t embarrass yourself by putting on a show for the other campers while trying to back your RV into your campsite.
Bring Sufficient Clothing
Camping is all about being prepared. New campers often neglect to bring enough clothes. Remember, not all campgrounds have laundry facilities. Weather conditions can also demand different attire. You’ll like a rain suit in case it rains, a swimsuit for a dip, and maybe a sweater or jacket for those cool evenings.
Avoid Severe Weather
If you are a glutton for punishment, try putting up a tent in the rain. Camping is about relaxing outdoors, so don’t go camping if you know there is going to be foul weather. There is nothing more uncomfortable than sitting in your tent for two days while rain pounds your tent and the wind keeps laying it down on top of you. Right after a storm could be just as bad with rain-soaked campsites and mud.
Camp Close to Home
Just in case, don’t travel far for your first camping trip. You may find out after a night of sleeping on the ground that you are not cut out to be a camper. You may have gear trouble and find yourself without a tent. You may run out of food. The weather may change for the worse. Any number of things could happen to make you want to go home early.
