Hersheypark Camp-O-Ree!!

[Tami the Mom]

If you get the chance to go, I highly recommend! We had a terrific time! The campground is very nice, all the amenities- flush toilets, nice tent sites, camp store with plenty of souvenirs, and a pool, tho we never used it. The one thing we were surprised about was the train tracks that went directly along the grounds, and the freight trains ran all night long- every 45 minutes or so.

 

We brought extra food for breakfasts because their description of the provided meal was "breakfast in a bag" and we were afraid it wouldn't fill the girls. Well- it was plenty! In each bag was a single serve bowl of cereal, variety choice, plus a danish and a bagel, cream cheese, butters and jellies, and plastic utensils and a napkin. To drink- one each white milk, orange juice and chocolate milk (Hershey's of course!)

 

All in all, we had a great time. The girls got to ride a bunch of rides, we all brought home bunches of souvenirs and of course- chocolate. For 7 people, we budgetted about $1500. We raised almost $2500 and came home with $525 left over. If we'd only had the original $1500, things would have been snug. We allowed everyone $100 for shopping once we knew we had extra money, and we brought an extra adult who was not figured into our budget, and we were able to cover all of her outside meals and some gifts.
