KANKAKEE COUNTY (CBS) Campers in Kankakee County are wrapping up their first July 4 weekend back at a popular site since 2014.
We’ve been tracking progress at the shuttered campgrounds for years.
CBS 2’s Lauren Victory checks in with nature lovers.
We found Dana Jancola soaking up the remains of a holiday weekend well spent. She was scrubbing pans from campsite meals at Kankakee River State Park.
“We went hiking. We did some biking. A lot of hanging out here with our kids that are still at home,” said Jancola, who has an older son in the military.
