On Saturday, September 10, 2011, Tom Johnson Camping Center, in conjunction with Forest River Inc., awarded one lucky customer with a new RV. The RV giveaway is one of the highlights during the complimentary annual customer appreciation BBQ, according to a recent company news release.
During this year’s 31st Annual Customer Appreciation BBQ Tom Johnson Camping Center awarded a lucky winner with a brand new Forest River Flagstaff 176 model folding trailer. Runner-up contestants were awarded flat screen televisions. The annual giveaway caps off the four day/three night complimentary customer appreciation BBQ which features nightly live bands, seminars on RV travel and maintenance, and activities for kids and adults.
“We are fortunate to have loyal and supportive customers and the Annual Customer Appreciation BBQ is one of the ways we like to say thanks from Tom Johnson Camping Center,” said Gary Stroud, Vice President. “The BBQ is a unique event we hold at our Rally Park that allows us to connect with our customers, show our appreciation to them and ensure we are meeting their needs and desires.”
Tom Johnson Camping Center received an award during the ceremony from Forest River Inc. for surpassing sales of over 2,000 Flagstaff brand RVs. Forest River Inc., one of the nation’s premier manufacturers of RVs, was a key partner in the contest. Tom Johnson Camping Center has been holding the Annual Customer Appreciation BBQ for 31 years and this is the third consecutive year that they have awarded a contestant with a new RV.

Worth Pondering…
“Get your motor runnin’
Head out on the highway
Lookin’ for adventure
And whatever comes our way
Yeah Darlin’ go make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of your guns at once
And explode into space.”
It could be the theme song of every RVer, though it’s not likely what Steppenwolf had in mind when they recorded Born to be Wild in 1968.
