Activities There is more to camping than sitting around the campfire. Happy Wanderers meet year-round, for a variety of indoor and outdoor activities. While camping, we keep busy hiking, swimming and touring by bicycle, kayak and canoe. With the occasional round of golf, site-seeing and shopping, it's easy to build an appetite. Fortunately, Happy Wanderers have taken the art of outdoor cooking to new levels, with our legendary pot luck dinners and hospitalities. During the winter months, members get together to ski, go bowling, and enjoy winter hiking. Our annual holiday party is an opportunity to gather and exchange gifts, and enjoy the fellowship of the holiday season. Connecticut FCRV hosts several state-wide activities every year. There are two Conservation Weekends, held at Rocky Neck State Park, where we assist the Department of Environmental Protection in preservation of the park. We camp for the weekend at no charge, in exchange for a few hours of work. Additionally, Spring and Fall rallies allow the entire membership to gather and participate in adult and youth activities, entertainment, and much more. Teens are very active in FCRV, with the guidance of the teen directors. They get together for laser tag, go carts, bowling, or just hanging out. The teen king and queen pageant is held at Fall Rally, where our teens showcase their talents. The winners represent Connecticut at the FCRV Campvention, where a national teen queen is crowned. Youth activities include games and crafts, along with the SKIP program, where Smart Kids are Informed Persons. SKIP covers such topics as fire safety, first aid, earthquake safety, cooking skills and safe boating. |
