Go RVing Canada hopes to encourage those who take advantage of fun and affordable RV vacationing to share their RV experiences with us. As we know, Canada is full of spectacular campgrounds and this summer is a perfect opportunity to enjoy more vacation time within our country. With the increased success of the Canadian RV industry, RV sales have seen an impressive jump in sales figures across the board, signifying that a record number of Canadian families are discovering the fun and flexible travel that the RV lifestyle provides.

"We are so excited to launch this fun, summer themed contest that is open and available to everyone across Canada," said Go RVing Canada spokesperson Angèle Lapointe. "In this current digital age, it has become increasingly quick and easy to upload photos instantly on-line. We look forward to receiving Canada’s most memorable photos over the next two months which will only encourage more people to get out and enjoy the RV lifestyle."

Depending on the RV model, a typical family RV vacation can be up to 75% less expensive per day than other forms of vacation travel. According to a recent cost-comparison study conducted by PKF Consulting, an RV trip is shown to be more economical when compared to a traditional week's vacation for a family of four, when the costs of flights, car rental, hotels and eating out at restaurants are considered.

Winners of the contest will be announced September 2nd, 2011. RV specialists from Go RVing Canada’s Public Relations team will select the top photos based on the following criteria:

· overall appearance and beauty;
· originality and creativity;
· relevance to the four categories; and
· best representation of the RV lifestyle.
