Lindale Middle School teachers and administrators will camp out at the school beginning Monday night and until a 1,024-cubic-foot storage container donated by PODS Moving & Storage is filled with supplies for the Anne Arundel County Food and Resource Bank. This will be the second year the school's staff sets up camp to collect food. Last year's schoolwide effort yielded more than 7,800 pounds of food.
A few years ago, as a family camping trip loomed, my (now) wife and I began to panic. We figured her three young kids would have fun most of the time. We also figured that at other times, one or two might end up bleeding, or arguing, or creating a general nuisance that might get us evicted, tent and all, from our state park campsite.
Question: My husband and I are planning our camping trips. Can you give us some menu ideas and tips on what to bring? Answer: Many campers treat food simply as the fuel they need to hike, fish or canoe. But cooking and eating in the great outdoors can be every bit as rewarding as those other activities. The most basic foods, like bacon and eggs, or sauteed fish that you've caught yourself, taste delicious when cooked over a campfire. And with a little planning, you can be more creative with your meals.
Last year at this time, Lindale Middle School teachers and administrators camped outside for a week as part of a schoolwide effort to collect more than 7,400 pounds of food for the needy. The school was up to the challenge again this year to fill a storage container with thousands of pounds of food for the needy.

He also offers comfort tips and recipes to make camping more enjoyable.
Camping is one of the pleasures of summer. As one who has spent many weeks backpacking and camping in the Northeast, I know about the joys of living in the great outdoors. I also know that food is a necessity, regardless of how remote from civilization you wander.
When temperatures start to rise - especially during the post- storm, no-electricity haze we just endured - there are many ways one might choose to cool off. Especially if one has just spent the past few hours cutting and clearing downed trees from a wind-ravaged yard. A nice icy lemonade. A frosty pint of beer. A scoop of ice cream. I tried all three on Saturday - and that was before noon.
