WHAT PAST RV
LEARNING WEEKEND ATTENDEES HAD TO SAY.

“Loved it! The staff at RVDA have organized a real gem of a weekend, with terrific value. RVDA organized a real winner here that has us returning yet again. A most unique weekend making new friends, attending short informative seminars, relaxing, and just plain having fun. Even though we have been campers/RV’rs for over 30 years, we learned something new at every seminar. All the presenters were authoritative and experienced. And the food…OMG awesome…I think we might have cooked one meal all weekend. And everyone must have won at least one gift throughout the weekend. Given all the above, plus the price included 2 nights camping, it was a terrific value and the weekend is highly recommended.”

“This will be the third year in a row that we have attended the RV Learning Weekend. The information sessions, the people you meet, and the food are absolutely amazing. The people at Ol’ MacDonalds Resort and all the people involved go out of their way to help make this a great weekend. The cinnamon buns are out of this world!! This year our son and his family are going to join us for the weekend. The price to attend the weekend is very reasonable for what you get in return.”

“I have been going to the RVDA learning weekend for several years now and HIGHLY recommend it for new, experienced, and anyone just thinking about the RV lifestyle. The courses offer such variety and are packed with information. The industry is constantly changing and with new technologies, it can get a little overwhelming to some of us. All the instructors are awesome and last but not least the FOOD is Great!!! Beautiful setting and great organization make it such a great experience! If anything else you get to meet wonderful people and come away with new friends!!!”

“My husband and myself along with friends have participated in the RV weekend for the past 4 years. It has been tons of fun and very informative. The presenters all had great tips and advice for us, not to mention the great prizes and food! Looking forward to this year's weekend!”
