The RVDA of Canada is inviting nominations from across Canada for the 2019 Walter Paseska Canadian RV Dealer of the Year Award.
Established in 1989 by Camping Canada – and dedicated to Walter Paseska for his many years of commitment and tireless dedication to the RV industry – this award is given to a Canadian RV acting dealer principal on the basis of the following criteria:
- Long-term dedication to the RV industry and promotion of the RV lifestyle by the acting dealer principal of a recognized full-service RV dealership
- Commitment and participation in the RVDA at the provincial or national level
- Recognition by customers and peers as a person with the highest integrity and credibility in both work and personal life
- Contribution to the community
People are asked to submit nominations to RVDA of Canada’s national office.
A maximum of three candidates per province/region will be considered for the award. The award selection committee, composed of the past five Dealer of the Year Award recipients and one representative from the award’s sponsor, RV Lifestyle Magazine, chooses the winner(s) from the list of nominees by secret ballot.
RV Lifestyle Magazine will present this year’s Canadian RV Dealer of the Year Award at the 2019 RV Dealers International Convention/Expo, RVDA of Canada Annual Meeting, on Nov. 13.
Winners must be onsite to receive their award.
The winner(s) will be acknowledged in several ways: an etched glass award for the recipient(s); a profile story on the dealership in RV Lifestyle Dealer News magazine; presentation of a professionally-taken photograph of the recipient to the dealership; a paid announcement in their local paper(s); and creation of press releases and a press kit for the dealer to send to his / her local media, to national and regional media, and to manufacturers, along with instructions for use by the dealer.
