best camping places in the midwest image
I live in Indiana, but am willing to expand and go to other places in the Midwest. Are there any places that are great for camping/hiking/fishing in the Midwest?
Answer
Try using this site http://www.woodalls.com/tents/ I like it because one, Woodalls is a name you can trust and two, it's a great tool to find campgrounds anywhere. You can search by state, city or tell it within so many miles of a location. It'll also give you info on what that campground offers. Example, pets, swimming, fishing, if they're year round, etc.
Also, if you need a checklist to make sure you're not forgetting anything, we have a pretty good camping checklist on our website. You can see it here. http://www.family-tents.com/articles/Camping-Checklist
I hope this helps. Happy camping to you.

What is the usual tuition for a good Equestrian summer camp?
Kisa
I want to go to an overnight summer camp any where in the states, i would like it to be a good one. so i was looking at culver but the approximate cost is about $6,500 and that is a lot of money. although Culver is a great summer camp and it has diverse activities to choose. Should i go to culver, are the prices of other good equestrian camps equal? and what other camps should i consider?
Answer
This depends to a large extent on where the camp is located and who is running it, Kisa. There are horse camps for every level of rider, in every state in the country ( I take it that you must be from Australia or somewhere in the southern hemisphere, where it's nearly the end of the winter) and they vary widely in terms of their costs and the types of activities offered. It would help if I knew a bit more about what your riding interests are and what your ability level is, but since you've indicated an interest in the camp at the Culver Military Academy, I can tell you a little bit about that.
Culver Academy is a private, military style school for girls and boys in grades 7 through 12 that is located in the northern part of the state of Indiana, in the American Midwest. You are correct about its reputation-it is well known as one of the best preparatory schools in the country, and is the home of the famous "Black Horse Troop" which has been seen and has perfomed at numerous events- everything from the Rose Parade in Pasadena, California to the recent presidential inaugural parade. The school does offer a summer program and camp, yes, but it's held during OUR SUMMER, which is the dead of the winter for you, Kisa, when you would normally be in school yourself. The impression I get from your question is that you may be thinking of coming here either this year ( it's already almost autumn here now, most summer camps are closed for the season, and our schools and universities have just opened for the fall semester) or perhaps in your summer, which occurs during OUR winter season. If you come to the States at that time, you'll be disappointed, because no camp operates year round, even at a place like Culver. If you want to attend a summer camp in the States, you are going to have to travel here at the BEGINING of your winter, or perhaps in the late fall. In addition, you'll need to sign up and pay your camp fees way in advance if you want to get a spot at a place like Culver ( and I will give you the name and web address of another camp which you should check out that is even better than Culver in a lot of ways) because these places fill up fast and competition for spots at them is keen. I am not sure that the school you attend is going to be very thrilled with the idea of your taking 3 months off in the winter to attend camp- that may not go over very well, and you need to clear it with the school officials BEFORE you sign up for camp or make reservations to fly over. Otherwise, problems could result- serious ones.
The other camp I want to mention to you, which does operate year round, at least to some degree, is the International Riding Camp for girls, which is located in upstate New York, in the foothills of the Catskill Mountains. ( The US has numerous mountain ranges- there are two of them in New York state alone.) IRC is also a privately owned and run camp, and they have campers from around the world, which may be of interest to you. Their website is www.internationalridingcamp.com, and you should check this out. Culver is a good camp, but it's not the only fish in the sea. You may decide you like IRC better. Good luck in your search.
