Have Trailer, Will Travel


Have you seen a giant marshmallow heading down the road? If so you’ve seen the official trailer of the Camping In Ontario Ambassador program. Ambassador Howard Huchuk travels Ontario meeting and greeting campground owners, staff and campers bringing the association closer to its wonderful member campgrounds.

So, if you see Howard while on your summer camping travels, give him a wave! And no,... He doesn’t have any marshmallows inside. Sorry, you’ll have to go to your campground store for that.

Campfires:

You can enjoy a campfire during the fire season provided it’s built on bare rock, soil or other non-combustible material. Your campfire must be at least 1 metre away from any flammable material; at least 3 metres away from any overhanging vegetation and your campfire cannot exceed 1 metre in diameter and 1 metre in height.

Campfires are prohibited during a Restricted Fire Zone. The only exception is in an organized campground and only if the campground owner/operator decides it is safe to do so. In these situations, strict campfire rules must be adhered to. Your campground owner/operator will provide you with the rules when campfires are allowed.
