Museum of Family Camping
Allenstown, New Hampshire is the home of the Museum of Family Camping. It’s located in the old Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) dining hall within Bear Brook State Park, along with a couple of other museums that may (or may not) be of interest. The museum was conceived by Roy Heise and opened in 1993.
The Museum has a story to tell its visitors: The story of manufactured products used in camping; the story of families, groups, and individuals as they share the outdoors; the story of parks and campgrounds that welcome campers for recreation and fellowship.
Sounds like three stories to me. But, if you like camping, it’s worth a visit to the museum just so you can see some of the old camping gear like the canvas tent; you won’t complain as much about backpacking with a modern tent after seeing the stuff people used to lug around!
