RVillage, founded by Curtis Coleman, an entrepreneur and musician, has grown into a large-scale social networking sites exclusively for RVers. The company recently hired Massachusetts native, Mark Lucas, as Business Development Manager to expand the membership base and form new partnerships with industry leading companies.
Lucas co-founded CrossRoads RV, ultimately selling the company to THOR in 2005 and staying on as president until 2010. He then re-launched the “Yellowstone” brand for Gulfstream RV, turned around Shasta RV and then launched the “Holiday House Continuation Series”.
He now brings his industry connections and experience to RV Friend Network to expand the platform’s reach. He still has a passion for fast cars and vintage toys, including a fully re-vamped 1971 Winnebago Brave he uses to travel with his wife and four kids.
Lucas joined the web show “RVing in New England” on Wednesday night to discuss his new role and plans for the future of RVillage. The New England RV Dealers Association hosts that web show weekly on Facebook, with around 7,000 viewers each week.
