A campfire party is perfect to hold in your backyard for any occasion. Whether you are celebrating a birthday or just want to enjoy company with friends, a campfire party will not disappoint. Bonfires and backyard parties are an American tradition; they are events known for evoking new memories and lasting bonds with our friends and family members.
Here is 5 tips for making your bonfire party simple and fun for all involved.
Check the weather - This is a no-brainer. There are few things more miserable than sitting outside in cold, rainy weather.
Food / Drinks - Preparing food for a party can be both time consuming and expensive. If done alone, it can eat up precious time you could be spending on other important party prep. Instead of taking on the task alone, make cooking part of the event, and invite your guests to arrive early. Turn on the tunes, pour some beverages and designate tasks of chopping, mixing and grilling. It'll make the food prep go quick, and get everyone engaged. Or just asked them to bring something.
You need to decide weather to make a meal on the grill or foil packs on the fire. Or just make snack foods like hotdogs on the fire and have a hotdog bar,
Seating - Do you have enough seating or should they bring their own chair.
Starting the fire - The last thing you need is trouble getting the fire to light, and stay lit. After all, the fire is the main event. But before someone tries to pull out the gasoline, stop, and make things simple and safe. By properly stacking your firewood, and using a fire starter, you can get a healthy fire built in no time.
Start by stacking your logs in a log cabin or crosshatch format. Place a fire starter inside your structure and light it so that the flames are touching the raw side (the side without bark) of the logs. In just a few minutes the logs should catch.
Games- Play games you can do around the fire or by the fire . Or setup a projector and watch a movie .
The possibilites are endless when it comes to a campfirre party. If you have on in the fall you can make fall themed drinks and food .
