Shoppers stake holiday campout

AURELIUS #- Warren and Kelly Burchim, of Venice Center, came to Bass Pro Shops Thursday night fully prepared with all their camping gear, ready to brave the night out in front of the store.

The Burchims were not deterred by the cold weather one bit.

“In October we went up to the Adirondacks and went camping,” Kelly said. “When we woke up there was snow all over our tent. For us this is just another camping trip.”
