Fire up your appetite:

• The graham cracker, chocolate, and marshmallow combo is always a classic, but try throwing in some new ingredients like peanut butter, caramel, bacon, or even fruit for a new twist on an old favorite.

• Burgers and hot dogs are obvious must-haves for a camping party. Keep your meat temperature preferences organized by writing them on the buns in ketchup or mustard.

• Try out some sweet-and-salty trail mix treats that everyone will love.

Follow these tips and tricks to light up your party:

• A bonfire is a great highlight for any camping party, but safety should always be the top priority.
• Build a fort out of objects you have around the house or find outside.
