ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The invention relates to outdoor camping site markers. Particularly the void of camping site markers.
2. State of the Art
It has been known for many years past and present, by those engaged in the recreation of camping may have marked their camping site with a piece of paper or paper plate bearing the word occupied or the family name and the like, maybe leaving articles of camping furniture to indicate their site is taken during their absence. These efforts, and others, of marking the site have sometimes failed as the weather or other forces may have removed or destroyed the articles left behind leaving no indicator at all the site is taken. Rendering the camping site unmarked and unattended thereby seemingly available. It is known that campers leaving markers of various descriptions or none at all have returned to their camp site only to find their camp site taken by another camper. It may be understood that no satisfactory device currently exists for marking a camping site occupied or in use. Particularly one that exists for mounting on a utility hook-up post structure and the like, that is highly visible, weather-resistant that remains intact.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is therefore an object of the invention to provide a site marker for use in camping.
It is also an object of the invention to have relatively few and simple parts which can be inexpensively manufactured and utilized to a high degree of efficiency designed to be light in weight and easily compacted when not in use.
Another object of the invention is to provide a weather-resistant camping site marker for use on a utility hook-up post structure and the like, to display during the absence of the camper.
It is a further object of the invention to provide the camper the option of displaying the site marker over the outside mirror structure of the recreation vehicle while parked at the camping site.
It is also an object of the invention that indicia be imprinted on the main embodiment of the site marker personalizing the marker with a family name, hobby, state, picture, camping club name, logo and the like.
A preferred aspect of the invention includes providing multiple bright indicia on the main portion of the embodiment intended to be conspicuous, with multiple colors of synthetic weather-resistant material used in manufacturing the device.
Further additional objects of my invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art upon reference to the detailed description following taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
