Going camping for the first time, suggestions on what to bring/do/eat

[swede123]

It sounds like you guys are doing the car-based type of camping, as opposed to more serious backpacking stuff, correct? If that's the case there really isn't that much to it, honestly. Make sure there aren't fire bans in place where you're going, and if not just bring a cooler with some hot dogs or something. Corn wrapped in foil makes for a great grilling food, and you can bring stuff to make smores etc too. Check the weather forecast before you go, be sure to bring some rain gear if there is any possible chance of bad weather.

Other than that, just have fun and stuff.
