Campgrounds and RV parks in B.C. are magnets for visitors who contribute to the local economy during their stay. Some even come back as residents and business owners. In fact, the B.C. camping industry contributes $606 million to GDP and employs 7,524 people. 

This webinar will explore how RV parks and campgrounds may fit into your community’s tourism strategy and community development plan. You’ll gain an understanding of the value potential of the RV and camping sector, and how to address challenges to expanding camping in your area. 

Hear experiences from two communities that have camping and RVing as part of their tourism strategies: Mission (Stave West Forest & Recreation Area), and the Osoyoos First Nation (Nk’Mip RV Park).
