Do Florida RV Parks allow campfires

Do many decent (not cheap and trashy) RV Parks in Florida allow campfires at your site? While researching RV Parks for our future winter location, I can't find any mention of whether campfires are allowed on any of the websites I've looked at. I can't find much of anything in a Google search either. I thought I would post this here rather than sending dozens of emails to the park management people. I hope some of you here would know what the deal is. We're not looking to have a campfire all the time but once a week is something we enjoy. Thanks in advance for any information you can provide.

    Ditto on that and unless there is a drought ongoing, Florida is generally on the soggy side. Not to say that we don't see forest fires but they usually occur during a dry period and aren't the monstrous uncontrolled blazes like they have out west.
