Sleep under a starry Western sky, where 90-degree days turn into cool nights, creating an ideal camping experience. Spend the days volcano hopping at Capulin Volcano National Monument, bird-watching in Kiowa National Grasslands or walking in the footsteps of dinosaurs at Clayton Lake State Park. The lake offers hiking, horse trails and fishing. Travel through local history at the Herzstein Memorial Museum or over dinner at the Eklund Dining Room and Saloon, once the only hotel between Dallas and Denver. Stretch out in the long pull thrus or enjoy group events in the all-purpose room. Your four-legged fellow travelers will appreciate the grassy pet walk or the on-site horse motel.

Life has a way of bringing families together and that is definitely what happened when Jeff & Carol Childress, along with Nola Childress, decided to purchase a KOA Kampground in March of 2007.

"We brought 11 family members with us to the campground," says Carol, "2 daughters, 1 son-in-law, and 5 grandchildren". The idea to have a family based business that allows all of them to have fun and use their strengths, is exactly what they wanted.

The sometimes fast paced and recreation atmosphere was something both Jeff & Carol had previous experience in. "We both used to be floor supervisors in Las Vegas casinos," says Jeff, "after working with guests on that level; we look forward to seeing them while they are relaxing."

Their newly redesigned store and cleanliness of the campground are just the tip of the iceberg of new improvements and changes they plan to make. Along with making sure each guest has a fun and rewarding experience, they are sure to have a lot of repeat business.

Even though this first season will be busy Jeff & Carol like to relax with a good book.

"With so much family it is also good to get together for a family bar-b-que and just enjoy what we have," says Carol.
