Camping in NYS =(

We got the scoop that camping in New York State parks is supposed to end within the next two weeks due to budget cuts.... please check with your campgrounds if you have reservations this summer.

 I was staying in the Adirondacks this weekend and a ranger said they were all emailed that they'd have to start kicking campers out in a few weeks. 

Re: Camping in NYS =(

  • I heard about that.  It is very sad... although I am a SAHM mom, this is my field of work (Park & Resource Management).  What a shame, and it looks like things just keep getting worse with the budget cuts :(
  • We are staying at a few places but we looked at a list of camps that have the potential of closing and they weren't on the list.  I guess there's a website with that information.  That would stink if you lost your reservations - hopefully they will be giving refunds - it's not fair otherwise.

    That is so sad, I have some friends who camp with their kids several times during the summer. It's an affordable fun vacation for families. Ugh.

  • The ranger said there were two lists - NYS and NYS Enviro Conservation campgrounds... originally some were being closed but he made the statement that it'd be all of 'em.  The poor guy had his lawn mower taken away already!
  • Really??  I thought they decided to keep them open after all?
  • They should all be open -- NYS Parks AND DEC campgrounds.  They passed a bill to do this just before Memorial Day.  I can double check, but I am almost 100% certain.
