Canadian Camping Appreciation Weekend is this weekend, Sept. 9-11. The annual weekend, now in its seventh year, is a national initiative coordinated by the Canadian Camping and RV Council and its members to thank their campers for their patronage and to help celebrate the importance of the camping and RV lifestyle.
Private campgrounds throughout Canada will be able to participate in the Camping Appreciation Weekend from coast-to-coast, many offering discounted site fees and events in support of Care Camps, a charity that sends Canadian kids battling cancer to specialized oncology camps where they can enjoy nature, childhood and fun.
Campers can access a special weekend stay offer of two-nights, get the third night at 50% off or other special discounts at participating campgrounds.
“CCRVC is excited about the opportunity to again partner with Care Camps during our 7th Annual Camper Appreciation Weekend to help with their fundraising efforts to give children with cancer the chance to get outside and enjoy the camping experience. We are truly honored and proud to be a partner of Care Camps and we are looking forward to a great Camper Appreciation Weekend,” said Cara Csizmadia, CCRVC’s membership and benefits coordinator.
The Canadian Camping and RV Council is pleased to be joined by Wayfarer Insurance this year who have generously donated $5,000 towards Care Camps fundraising objectives.
“Wayfarer is proud to partner with the CCRVC to help raise funds for Care Camps! At Camp, kids can forget about the chemo, the radiation, and all the hard stuff that comes with cancer … and just be a child again.”
