  2. During a discussion on unit hats a couple months ago, I showed the Centennial II uniform photos to our Scouts. They decided that the garrison style cap would be their parade headgear (they lead 4 city parades each year).

Most state parks also meet the bill and many have group camping (here). There is a small cost to most of those options, but even the highest (Elks) is like $2-5 a night.
