Camping in Redwood City? You bet.

A family campout is set to be held at the Red Morton Park soccer field from this Friday starting at 5 p.m. till Saturday morning.

The event is considered a great way to get young kids to try out camping.

“You’ll be only minutes fro your house, but it will feel like you’re miles away,” organizers said.

The event is held by the Redwood City Parks and Arts Foundation and the City of Redwood City Parks, Recreation and Community Services Department.

The event will feature BBQ hamburgers, hot dogs, bonfire, storytime, s’mores, games, rock painting and breakfast on Saturday morning, and more, organizers said.

The cost is $20 per person, but registration is required here and ends today.
