The busy summer camping season is well underway at Clinton Lake and Weldon Springs.

On the WHOW Morning Show on Tuesday, Department of Natural Resources Conservation Police Officer Noah Workman told Regional Radio the camping season has started hot, and this weekend is sold out for the holiday.

Officer Workman indicates it isn't uncommon to have some issues with neighboring visitors in the campground or even family disputes. He hopes all visitors this summer find a way to get along.

Keeping the campground clean has been a challenge in recent years, and Officer Workman reminds of the old saying, if you bring it, take it out, noting there are also dumpsters all over the campground.

Officer Workman also reminds to park only in designated parking areas. Park staff have experienced challenges the last couple of summers with visitors making parking spots out of space that is not meant for parking.
