Get Ready For 2016 Canadian RVing and Camping Week
We are very excited to announce that the planning for the second Canadian RVing and Camping week is well underway. The CCRVC will again be working with Camping Associations in British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and the Atlantic Provinces in hosting events at campgrounds across the country. New to 2016 is CCRVC’s partnership with GO RVing and Make-a-Wish Canada in the national, week-long event.
Scheduled to run from May 24 to 29, Canadian RVing and Camping Week will bring campers together across Canada to help celebrate RVing and camping in Canada with special discounted campground rates. A two-night camping rate of $50 will be offered at participating campgrounds, culminating with Go RVing’s Make-a-Wish fundraiser with campers gathering across Canada in designated “wish gardens” to help raise money for children facing life threatening illnesses.
CCRVC will work alongside public and private partners in the camping sector on a communications and advertising strategy that will support and ensure the success of Canadian RVing and Camping Week in 2016.
With more than 1,400 campgrounds ready to participate, we are getting ready for a celebration that will have the old and new generations enjoy the camping experience together and unite the camping sector from coast to coast. If you would like to host and event or should you have any questions we invite you to contact CCRVC at info@ccrvc.ca.
Canadian RVing and Camping Week Objectives
• Fill empty campsites during the low season
• Launch the 2016 Canadian Camping Season
• Partner with Make-a-Wish Canada to raise funds for children facing life threatening illnesses
• Promote the lifestyle associated with camping and RVing
• Support marketing efforts of campgrounds, RV Dealers and RV Manufacturers in one unified coordinated celebration
• Raise awareness of the economic impact and community benefits that the Camping and RV industries generate
There is no fee to Campgrounds who participate in Canadian RVing and Camping Week. Campgrounds and RV Parks will be required to offer either two nights for $50 plus tax (or 5 nights for the price of 4) for the Canadian RVing and Camping Week in May. Campgrounds will be asked to complete the form and forward to their respective Association in order to be recognized as a participant in Canadian RVing and Camping Week. CCRVC will have a list of each Campground on their website so consumers will know who will be part of the promotion.
