Get set for full summer of fun By JAMES BRANDON Ask any dedicated camper, fisherman, boating enthusiast, hunter, how to make the most out of the pristine glories of the Great Outdoors and he will focus his reply somewhat as follows: Once you know what you want to do and where you want to do it, it’s all a matter of getting fitted out with the right gear. Following the experienced outdoorsman’s advice promises the avoidance of any serious problems during the precious time one devotes to escaping from the tensions of daily living, assuring a return for all — refreshed and revitalized. Individual Choices Widened The advice is by no means new. But the emphasis is more significant than ever before because the cumulative growth in the vast number of people who have developed a burning appetite for periodic returns to nature is rapidly making participation in outdoor recreation a basic nationwide life-style involving all members of the family. The response to the emergence of this new basic life style from institutions serving the general public — state and federal, even many local governments, organizations of citizens dedicated to conservation and expansion of the

wilderness and park lands of the nation, and the resourcefulness of industry in production of equipment and gear for all manner of outdoor recreation — has widened the choices individuals now have in seeking outdoor fun. The broadened interest in escaping to the spirit lifting, revitalizing return to nature is being accomplished by an extension of the dimensions of the many opportunities so eagerly sought by so many more people. The Time Factor Take this matter of time as one of the basic dimensions. The additional days, long even extra hours of leisure have added opportunities for more folk to get back to nature more often than just during vacation time. Take this matter of facilities — planned places for people to go to. Here too there has been an expan-

sion of the dimension offer- . ing easier access to an infinite variety of outdoor pleasure, from rugged woodlands for campers and for lazy-bones who just want to relax at handsome resorts featuring participating sports available at will. The fact is, as has been noted before, that the opportunities for satisfying the hunger for escape actually can begin in one’s own private slice of the Great Outdoors—this is one’s own backyard. This can be a place for something more than entertaining friends with “cook outs.” It can be the area where the kids get their first experience camping out now that such efficient equipment as “pop” tents, that should also go on vacation, is available. It can be an area in which dad tries out his new fishing gear, teaches mom and maybe the kids, too, how to

caist. Os Growing Appeal It can be the scene for introducing mom, and dad too, to the graceful and challenging sport, of archery, now rising in popularity. Very important, it can be utilized as the location for a “shakedown camp-out” in which all members of the family participate to make sure all preparations and gear needed for the coming vacation are properly assembled and that all members of the family know just what specific duties will be required of them “in the field.” Finally, aligned with the dimension of time as broadening the opportunities for enjoyment of the Great Outdoors, is modem transport, thanks to resourcefulness of the builders of Recreational Vehicles. Fully Equipped Vehicles The latter, being constantly improved, are the station wagon or pick-up truck combinations with trailer - campers and the sophisticated self-powered motorhomes that make it possible for whole families to roam the outdoors together without need for hotel or motel accommodations. Further extension of this dimension is cruising the waterways, thanks to the outboard motor industry which provides economical power for houseboats that will serve families and parties of friends with accommodations on water like those furnished by campers and motorhomes on land. Finally again in this area is the discovery by more outdoorsmen of the utility of the privately owned airplane piloted by the owner. Models accommodating families or parties and all their gear are being acquired by more folk to whisk them over the top of traffic to their destinations for time saving travel. “Spare Passenger” Needs Checking You’ve packed all the luggage, kids and camping gear into the car and now you think you’re ready to go into the Great Outdoors. But there’s one passenger you might have overlooked — your spare tire. A flat or “soft” spare is as good as no spare at all. Check your spare before you pack. &
