Iowa’s state parks will be officially kicking off the camping season this weekend with special hikes, demonstrations, fishing clinics and much more. Campers will also receive a free May/June issue of Iowa Outdoors magazine. “We are looking forward to this season opener and to welcoming visitors and campers to our parks,” says Todd Coffelt, chief of state parks for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Last year, more than 15 million people visited Iowa’s state parks with more than 900,000 of those enjoying overnight stays. The camping kickoff is in conjunction with the national Let’s Camp America! initiative. For more information, log on through the link included below.
