Family Campout Fun And More At Shawnee Mission Park
What could be better than a family campout right here in Johnson County?
Whether you are an experienced camper or just looking for an activity to share with your family, this is your opportunity to sleep under the stars in the safety of the largest park in Johnson County. In addition to spending a night under the stars in Shawnee Mission Park, you will receive passes for admittance to Shawnee Mission Park Beach and pedal Boat Rental, and receive tickets to The Theatre in the Park’s production of “Beauty and the Beast”. And as a special bonus, you will receive early admittance to the show as well as the opportunity to attend a meet-and-greet with some of the actors in the show.

Benefiting New Horizon's Summer Camp
Along with the benefit of spending time with friends and family in the great outdoors, proceeds from this event will benefit JCPRD’s New Horizon Summer Camp. 2008 marks New Horizons 39th year serving the county’s special needs population (ages 6-18).

What To Bring To The Campout
Campers will need to bring their own camping equipment (tents, sleeping bags, etc.). Saturday evening dinner is not provide, community grills are available at Shelter No. 2. Donuts, juice and milk will be provided Sunday morning.
