The Daily Illini Reports On A Student Organization Creating A Camping Club To Encourage Kids To "Escape From The University For A Few Days"
The University of Illinois has allowed for students to get out of the classroom and explore the outdoors! A RSO has developed a camping experience for those interested. The Camping Club is in its second year at the University, but will be taking its first trip in October. Started by a group of now sophomores, the Camping Club began with the goal of giving students a way to explore the outdoors in spots that are not as close to campus that students are used to or willing to go themselves to.
Staff writer Megan Bradley for independent student paper "The Daily Illini" relates in her article: "In its first year, the Camping Club did not go on any trips. The board members spent the year figuring out the logistical details of how to start a new RSO on campus, getting the proper equipment, transporting students to sites that are a few hours away and keeping participants at the campsites for a few nights." This club is a great way to relieve stress ans meet new people!
