slogan ?

It seems to me that the main reason for a slogan is to pacify concerned passers-by that we won't be a nuisance. I checked various agencies' websites for their guidance to visitors, and what crops up everywhere is the word Responsible, whether it be for walkers, cyclists, campers, anglers, in fact every activity. Some posts have also raised concern about mentioning that we are camping, so how about a generic solution:

Responsible Tourist
 
Slogan

Wild and Free.

or

Wild at Heart.

or

No Campsite, No Problem!

or

no slogan as others have said.

Good idea for a window sticker though, I passed a few vans this weekend and wondered if they were fellow members.

I like the sugestion - leave only footprints take only memories ..... could be preceeded by Responsible Wildcampers ..... and then the web address at the bottom.

Can I also suggest that members of this site/group subscribe to a code of ethics ... then woe betide anyone found letting the side down. If you are going for a badge it should be a badge of pride and responsibility,with a real sense of ownership and awareness.

(Geocaching.com encourages geocachers to pick up any rubbish they find from sites of beauty when they are out caching ... even if its not theirs, and dispose of it appropriately)
 
With regards to Phils thread and letter
How about 'Wild Camping - in association with Inverness Council'
 
I like the idea of just the simple W.

The posters on here are right, mention campers / camping and it conjures up the wrong idea.

The W is something others from here would recognise no need for a slogan on it.

I did like the the old wild camping motor home that was in the top left corner only last week.

Even better if we left out the slogan AND the letter and just put a blank sheet of paper in the top or bottom left or right corner, we'd all recognise each other, without causing offence or attracting any unwanted attention. :lol-049:

Can we have a secret wave too? where we dont actually wave so no one realises we are waving? :)
 
What about a secret handshake, perhaps with a bent thumb, may also work wonders if you're spoken to by the Police.

WILDING CAMPING
Just to wind up Caravanners

WILD CAMPING
Because I Can

Apologise for the above but I haven't much to do this morning.
 
Slogan as it stands doesn't scan quite right: there are too many syllables.

You could make it better by removing "away", the sense still is clear.

Take nothing but memories; leave no trace behind.

It's still not quite right but better.

With all these different slogan suggestions it occurs to me than someone enterprising at the next meet
could sell a load of T shirts! lol...:wacko:
 
Just the "W" does it for me. We would know others of the same ilk and not agitate the non believers.
 
ok

Give me five words that to you sum up wild camping. Do not worry if someone else has already used them.

i.e

Freedom
Beauty
nature
space
relaxation
 
Think I might have got the wrong idea with the 5 word thing! But I guess it does sum up what i enjoy!!!
 
Independence
Opportunities
Excitement
Convenience
New experiences

Yes - I know one of those is 2 words but I couldn't think how to put it!
