 Entertainment for the Whole Family!
Camping Activities
Well, you're finally all set up at your site and it's time to relax, read a book, get the fishing gear ready, or slip away to the woods for a hand-holding walk with the one you love. Then you remember that you've got three excited calves-- er, kids, shouting for you to take them swimming and play games with them!
 Moore's Pond and the Chocorua River are an angler's delight. The water here covers 55 acres and reaches a depth of 38 feet, meaning it is a perfect place to fish for bass, trout, pickerel, perch, sunfish, shiners and hornpout! Just cast a line baited with worm, 'crawler, lure or fly and you'll be sure to hook a live one. Good fishing can be had from the banks or from a boat. Remember to throw back the "small fry" fish - keep the waters stocked for future fun!
Folks, I'm a confirmed bachelor, but even I appreciate the peace and quiet that the recreational directors provide us older campers.
 Be as active or relaxed as you choose while the kids enjoy the full schedule of organized camping activities. Daily directed programs are available starting the week of June 21, 2010. Children ages 6 and above are welcome to attend without their parents and younger ones may join with parental supervision. The activities are geared toward recognition and respect for the environment, learning and creativity, social interaction and, most of all, fun!
Chocorua Camping Village KOA often hosts fishing tournaments in three age categories. Prizes awarded have, in the past, included a free weekend of camping, free ice cream and even a diploma of recognition!
There are plenty of activities for you to enjoy, with or without your young ones!
