Umphreaks, moe.rons, bassheads, phamily, and festival-goers of all demographics will arrive in Chillicothe in a few short days to kick off the fourteenth annual Summer Camp Music Festival. Three Sisters Park is the home to this massive three-day festival. The venue differentiates Summer Camp from camp-by-your-car festivals, as festival attendees must hike their gear to their campsites. A wagon is the NUMBER ONE item you or a friend should bring to Summer Camp. Set-up and take-down is far more efficient with the help of a wagon. Because of the venue layout, attendees must haul their belongings into the venue. My car was parked about a mile away from my campsite at Summer Camp 2013. I highly recommend buying or borrowing a wagon for this festival, unless you don’t mind the one to two mile heave with your tent, canopy, chairs, food, clothes, and other belongings.
