CAMPING FEES LANSING, MICH. (AP) (wgvu) - IT SOON MAY COST MORE TO CAMP AT STATE
FOREST CAMPGROUNDS.
MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES DIRECTOR REBECCA
HUMPHRIES NEXT WEEK WILL DECIDE ON A PROPOSAL TO BOOST NIGHTLY FEES
AT THE STATE'S RUSTIC CAMPGROUNDS FROM 10 DOLLARS TO 15 DOLLARS.
THE HIGHER FEES WOULD TAKE EFFECT MAY 14.
THE STATE SAYS MICHIGAN'S 143 FOREST CAMPGROUNDS AREN'T BRINGING
IN ENOUGH REVENUE TO COVER THEIR OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COSTS.
UNLIKE STATE PARK CAMPGROUNDS, FOREST CAMPGROUNDS ARE MORE
RUSTIC. THEY HAVE VAULT TOILETS AND NO ELECTRICAL HOOKUPS.
