ARVC LEADERSHIP PROFILE: BEN JANSEN
STRIVING FOR INCLUSIVITY ONE DAY AT A TIME
A member of ARVC's Membership and Marketing Committee and co-owner of Lassen RV Resort, Ben Jansen, is focused on diversity and inclusion at his park, and across our industry.

He has a message for all RV park and campground owners looking to make their businesses more inclusive to all: "Don’t just believe you’re welcoming and accepting of others, prove it day in and day out by uncovering your own ignorance and bigotry–we all have it, and we all must heal it. It’s not comfortable, so be kind to yourself in this endeavor; love wins if love is allowed on the field."

MEMBER TIP OF THE WEEK
NEW TOOL ALLOWS OWNERS TO TRACK LWCF PROJECTS; MARKET TO NEW CAMPERS
As private RV park and campground owners, having public recreation lands such as national parks, national forests and wildlife refuges located near your park is good for business. These protected areas give guests even more reasons to stay with you and more places to explore when they get there.

Now there’s an easy way for you to learn about existing and new public land conservation projects and you can market your park on GoCampingAmerica.com to campers visiting these natural wonders across America!
