As the temperature rises and summer is in full swing, it may seem odd to start thinking about Christmas.
However, Christmas in July has become a popular tradition, providing an opportunity to enjoy some cool winter fun during the year’s warmest months. And what better way to celebrate than by decorating Christmas trees at camp?
Campgrounds across the country have embraced this trend, offering a range of creative summer activities that capture the spirit of the winter holiday season. From tree decorating to festive movie screenings, there are plenty of ways to enjoy Christmas in July.
One of the most popular activities is decorating Christmas trees.
Many campsites offer pre-selected trees that can be decorated with tinsel, ornaments, and lights. This is a great way to get creative, and campers of all ages can enjoy the fun. Some campsites even offer a tree-decorating competition, a great way to get into the festive spirit and show off your decorating skills.
In addition to Christmas tree decorating, plenty of other summer activities can add some holiday cheer to your camping experience. For example, you can organize a Secret Santa gift exchange among campmates or bake some Christmas cookies to share around the campfire.
Another popular activity is to watch festive movies under the stars. Many campsites screen classic Christmas movies during the summer, providing the perfect opportunity to snuggle up with a cozy blanket and enjoy some holiday favorites. Some campsites even offer outdoor ice skating rinks, allowing you to enjoy winter sports in the middle of summer.
Of course, a celebration would only be complete with delicious food. Many campsites offer Christmas-themed meals, such as roast turkey or ham, that satisfy your holiday cravings. Indulge in some eggnog or hot cocoa to complete the festive experience.
Overall, Christmas in July is a great way to enjoy some summer fun while still capturing the spirit of the holiday season. Whether you’re decorating Christmas trees at camp or enjoying festive movies under the stars, there are plenty of creative summer activities. So why not embrace this festive tradition and enjoy some winter fun in the middle of summer?
