Governor Snyder Declares July “Michigan Camping & RV Month”

For the third year in a row, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder has declared a “Michigan Camping & RV Month,” to be held in July. Camping is a key contributor to the state’s over $17 billion tourism industry. The declaration supports the economic and recreational contributions that the camping industry provides to Michigan’s overall tourism, as well as promoting camping as a year-round family-friendly recreation option.

Help us spread the word! If your campground or dealership is running a special promotion for the month, let us know about it! MARVAC will highlight your promotion on our social media pages throughout the month. Contact Miranda atmchristen@allseasonscommunications.com for more information.
