campouts
Nights under canvas
Campouts are occasions when people sleep outdoors, typically in tents, usually for recreation.
The term often describes organized group activities—scout campouts, family campouts, backyard campouts with kids: The annual campout is next weekend.
A campout implies an overnight stay rather than just a day trip.
