Ever wanted to go camping in Prospect Park? Your chance is coming up on Saturday, September 21 when the Urban Park Rangers run their annual family-friendly program where kids can learn about the basics of camping, and the Rangers provide dinner.

There are only 30 spots available, and selection is done by an online lottery — or if you can’t get to a computer, you can call 718-421-2021 between 10am-4pm to have your name entered.
