What we’re about
Welcome to our group, The Camping Collective. We are a camping community that loves to camp, enjoy many outdoor activities, and socialize. We have a lot of fun!
We support YMCA Camp Kern please consider donating to help fund camp scholarships https://www.campkern.org/donate-to-kern.html for children that do not have the financial resources to attend camp. If you wish to donate, click the link and select Camp Kern as the campaign and Loretta Bailey as the campaigner. Thanks for your support!
Camping is at our core, but we also enjoy hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking, boating, and local entertainment. We also have joint events with other like-minded groups so you may see our events posted elsewhere.
We organize campouts in the SW Ohio region primarily but as adventurers, we also explore Ohio and our neighboring states! Have an idea for a campout? Let us know!
Come as you are, everyone is welcome to bring their hammock, tent, sleeping bag, camper, RV, or whatever it is they wish to camp in. Event details will indicate if the campout is at a group camp or if you should make your reservation. We prefer to stay at county, state, and national parks if possible!
My role as the organizer is to facilitate the creation of a community of campers who enjoy being around each other and the outdoors.
If you’d like to join our group your profile must have a photo of your face with no sunglasses. The exception is if a person on the leadership team has met or knows you.
Don’t know anyone? DM the organizer to see if you can come as their guest.
Stayed tuned to this space, we're going camping!

Details
Join The Camping Collective on a reconnaissance mission to explore Rocky Fork State Park. Rocky Fork State Park is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts in southwest Ohio. The region’s natural beauty can be enjoyed along the park’s hiking trails or from the water. Nearby, a scenic gorge, dolomite caves and natural wetlands add to the popularity of this recreation area. Pontoon, pedal boat, kayak, and SUP rentals are available too, as is a swimming beach.Plus, we have top secret information that a friend of ours (Pancake) will be enjoying the weekend there, and we're planning a friendly takeover. Shhh!
Reserve your camping spot at the upper campground at reserveohio.com. We are in site #37 and hosting a nightly campfire, so please bring Renee plenty of firewood! (Our takeover mission destination is at #164 - anywhere near us or along the way is great, or just pick whatever site you'd like to gather intel on). Don't forget your Camping Collective flags!
