Discover the opportunities!

Educational seminars with exciting speakers, campground & RV park tours, Networking, Sunday night cracker-barrel, low registration fee. Don’t miss your chance to attend the only fall conference for our industry held in Michigan.

Why Attend?

The most important reason for you to attend this convention is to learn. You will learn from the educational seminars! You will learn by listening to the outstanding speakers! You will learn the “how to’s” & “why’s” of our camping business from the campground tour! This convention is an opportunity to visit with those experts, your friends and other industry members, for a free flowing exchange of ideas and vital information that is specifically designed to meet your needs. Your business and the industry will move forward because of your attendance.

Cracker-barrel!

This is your time to discuss: anything and everything. The cracker-barrel has become a mainstay at the fall convention. It is your chance to ask a room full of experts in the campground industry your most important question. Because of the great turnout the cracker-barrel is again scheduled for Sunday night.

Campground Tour!

On Monday October 20^th we will set out on buses to tour area campgrounds. There is no better way to learn new ideas than to tour campgrounds and have the opportunity to ask the owner/operator questions about how and why he/she does things certain ways. This year we will be visiting

Greenwood Acres

Apple Creek

Michigan International Speedway

Seminars!

We have got some great seminars for you this fall. Green Cleaning and Recycling will begin the day off with an exciting seminar done by Craig Banes also. And then we will end the day with seminars by the Michigan Film Industry and one on Geocaching.

Hospitality!

The convention is about relaxing, having a good time, making new friends and visiting with your friends you haven’t seen in a while.
