Special to Welcome Home RGV

ovember is always a flurry of activity around our office as we brace ourselves for what’s to come shortly after Thanksgiving. The summer months are filled with meetings and interactions with our RV park managers, and around mid-October, we switch gears and start focusing on our activity and tour directors as they make their way back to South Texas. What people don’t understand is that our RV-park activity directors basically hit the ground running once they ‘land.’ In many cases, activities for the season are pre-planned a year in advance, but as we all know, some things don’t always work out the way we expected. So it’s a race to tie up loose ends and make sure everything is in order before our Winter Texan friends arrive...in droves. BOOT CAMP CONTINUED ON PAGE 5 >>
