Outdoors man Scott Tucker will host a fundraising “S'mores Campout” event for families this fall. Adults are encouraged to bring children for fireside s'mores eating. Happy Homes and Pets will feature the campout.

Nashville, TN -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/03/2015 -- Scott Tucker will be featured on Happy Homes and Pets in an upcoming article spotlighting the "S'mores Campout" night. The campout is planned for August 2016 and will allow up to 200 adults and children to come to Lake Radnor after park hours to enjoy s'mores and camp overnight.

"We think the campout will be a big success for families this fall," says Happy Homes and Pets writer Kathy Platter. "Tucker throws events like this from time to time, and he's always done great with the execution. It's a big undertaking to host a campout but the lake area is built for event's like this so hopefully it draws out a lot of people and some funds are raised."

The campout will be held at Lake Radnor in the central Tennessee valley. Tucker has collected 50 lbs of chocolate and 10 lbs of marshmallows for the campout which will be begin at 6pm with campfire s'mores and storytelling.

"My family has been camping at Radnor Lake for years, we love it there and I know a lot of other people do too," says Tucker. "So instead of our normal summer campfire get together, I decided to host this event and raise some money for the new community center. If everybody chips in a little for the s'mores and the camping then we should be able to help out a lot and really give back."

S'mores and healthy snacks will be available for attendees to purchase, all proceeds going to the future Radnor community center. Camping spots are limited to 50 spaces which can hold two cars and two tents per space.

More information will be published on the Happy Homes and Pets site next fall.

Author Scott Tucker recently donated his private 100 book fiction collection to his local public library, Happy Homes and Pets will spotlight the generous act.

Burlington, VT -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/30/2015 -- Happy Homes and Pets, the center for wholesome lifestyle inspiration on the web, will feature Scott Tucker in an upcoming article spotlighting the recent donation of more than 100 books. The book donation was given to a public library in Vermont from Tucker's personal collection of fictional books for children and adults.

"The donation from Tucker was extremely generous and we love hearing that sort of news," says Happy Homes and Pets editor Jenna Romero. "Our readers are just that, avid readers usually. They consider reading a form of recreation and many of them visit their local public library regularly to check out new books and spend time reading so a contribution like this from Tucker affects a community in a really positive way."

The donation was made from Tucker's private collection which consists of more than 1,000 fiction and nonfiction books. Tucker has been collecting literature for more than 20 years and donated the books on his most recent birthday as a gift to the community.

"This past year there came a point when I was hesitant to buy or check out any new books because my personal collection had grown out of control," says Tucker. "A friend suggested that I donate some of my books to our local public library which I am a member of and I was immediately on board. Some of the books I chose to donate were rare gems and some were just books I knew I wouldn't want to read again this year so I let them go."

Tucker gave the books to the library without announcement and patiently waited for each book to be inspected for quality. The books donated by Tucker are fictional pieces written from between the years 1970-2010. Happy Homes and Pets will publish photos of Tucker's book collection with an interview later this winter.
