Go RVing Canada Launches Innovative Advertisements

(Ottawa) March 5, 2009, Go RVing Canada has officially launched brand new advertisements to kick-off the Spring 2009 RV season.

“We are really excited about these new ads as we enter the Spring season”, said Alana Fontaine, Go RVing Spokesperson.  “They really portray our important message of bringing families together and will hit home for many individuals.”

The ads will air on major television networks across Canada such as CBC, CTV, E! Canada, The Weather Network, The Discovery Channel, TSN, and HGTV, among others.  Radio Spots will also be heard throughout the entire nation.

Fontaine said that Go RVing has received incredibly positive feedback during the first week of the launch.  “There is nothing more valuable to families than spending time together,” said Fontaine, “and an RV holiday provides the ideal setting to reconnect with each other.”

Studies have shown that families who RV together spend more time together.  In fact, 90% of RV owners say that it is the best way to travel with kids.

The ads are being released at the perfect time, as RV shows are being held across the country, with record-breaking attendance figures.   Local RV shows and exhibitions are great places for Canadians to find the right RV to suit their lifestyle as there are hundreds of RVs of all models and price points on display.

Across Canada, RV prices are at an eight-year low for Canadian consumers.  There is an RV to fit every lifestyle and budget, and historically low prices further add to the affordability of the RV lifestyle making an RV purchase a realistic opportunity for even more Canadian families.

Local RV shows and exhibitions are continuing to take place, with both the Montreal and Manitoba Shows running this weekend from March 5-8. 

“There has never been a better time for families to get into the RV lifestyle and discover the freedom, flexibility and family fun that it has to offer,” said Fontaine.

The Go RVing coalition was formed in 1997, and consists of RV manufacturers, RV dealers and campground operators.  The coalition serves as the Canadian RV camping industry ambassador to provide the public and media with information about the benefits of RV travel. The coalition also seeks to enhance consumer information and satisfaction with the RV experience.
