Campfire Coyotes – Retiree Chapter
A fun active group of campers formed the Campfire Coyotes in 2010 as a camping club for retirees and other people who can camp during the week. We are within the national and state FCRV organizations. Our members live in the Northern Front Range of Colorado and our twenty plus member families’ homes range from northern Colorado to Aurora. Our collective rigs can include fifth wheels, large and small travel trailers, motorhomes, tents, and pop-ups, while some members occasionally opt to stay in nearby cabins or motels, joining us for the group activities. Our members are typically active people ranging from their 50’s to 80’s. Many of our member-families often have their pets along for the ride, and guests and family members are welcome.
As a retiree chapter, we concentrate our trips on weekdays with an occasional weekend attached for longer or multi-site trips. Planned and recent trips include Gunnison, Ridgeway State Park, Cherry Creek State Park, Mueller State Park, and trips to Wyoming and Nebraska. Our camping schedule tends to run from April to October with monthly camp trips. In the off-season (November through March) we socialize at monthly events which include bowling, tours, lunches, and potlucks. We select camping areas with partial or full hookups. We encourage Campfire Coyotes to join regional events and rallies.
One or more members volunteer to host each campout/event and arrange optional activities such as potlucks, tours, dinners out, etc. The state or national FCRV organizations host some of the campouts and events in which the Coyotes participate and include other FCRV Chapters. Between events, we stay in touch via email regarding planning campouts and activities. Come camp with us!
