Lottery Open for Prospect Park Camping
Wednesday, August 10th, 2011
The Urban Park Rangers have a free camping program in Prospect Park that sounds pretty fun (as long as they don’t pitch the tents near certain parts of the park).
Families of up to four people are chosen by lottery to spend a night in the park with the Rangers. There’s a cook-out, then evening activities like night hikes and stargazing, and all you have to bring is a sleeping bag–they provide food and tents.
The camp out is scheduled for Friday, August 19, from 7pm to 7am, rain or shine. The 24-hour lottery is underway, and closes tonight at 11:59pm. If you’re selected, you will receive a phone call to confirm tomorrow.
