I think its a great idea. You should camp in a place where there are
restrooms available and allow people to bring campers, RV's, and 5th
wheels. This definately won't be "primitive camping". Usually we hold it
Friday-Sunday with a service on Sunday AM.
The North Dakota District has done this several times sponsored by the FCF
men.
Good Luck!
