Each meeting features a half day market place where campground owners make their spring purchases. The second half of the day features guest speakers.

CampEx and Convention: Each fall our members get together for three days of learning and networking as they prepare for the new camping season ahead. The first day of convention features a trade show of suppliers that serve the camping industry and our members spend a great deal of time walking the trade show and getting to know our associate members and the services they provide. Don’t be surprised if you walk away with new clients or orders as our campground owners begin planning for the campground season ahead.

It is published four times a year and is delivered to all campground members of the association as well as other stakeholders, including government representatives, Official Suppliers and affiliated tourism organizations.
