Cozy Camp-In set for long weekend

Campgrounds and RV parks might be closed, but that won’t stop Armstrong and Spalumcheen residents from having some fun over the Victoria Day long weekend.

The Armstrong-Spallumcheen Chamber of Commerce is promoting the first ever ‘Cozy Camp In’ where residents can pitch a tent in their backyards and network with their neighbors — at the proper distance — over the fence.

“Support local by picking up your camping supplies at businesses in Armstrong and Spallumcheen, then set up your camping gear in the yard, your RV or glamp-it in the house,” said Patti Noonan, Executive Director, Armstrong Spallumcheen Chamber of Commerce & Visitor Centre.

Participants are asked to get creative, and submit a photo of their campsite to win a prize for the ‘Most Creative Campsite.’
