Winnebago, the flagship brand of outdoor lifestyle product manufacturer Winnebago Industries, Inc., is celebrating its RV community during a week-long rally of fun, entertainment, and camaraderie.
Previously referred to as the Grand National Rally, the newly renamed Camp Winnebago will include the Winnebago brand in its moniker. The week of activity begins Friday and Saturday with Forest City’s Puckerbrush Days celebration before Winnebago officially opens its camp Sunday. Camp Winnebago runs through July 20.
As the largest and most esteemed community event of the year, Camp Winnebago will continue Winnebago’s homecoming legacy and highlight the company’s commitment to creating an owner-focused and limitless RV experience.
“For 54 years, we have hosted this rally, and every year we are eager to welcome our Winnebago motorhome and towable owners to Forest City for a week full of activities at Camp Winnebago,” said Kunal Mehta, head of strategy, business development and marketing for Winnebago. “With over 600 RVs in attendance, it is the perfect opportunity for our owners to reconnect with old friends and make new ones – all with the common thread of a Winnebago RV.”
Throughout the week, attendees will attend seminars, participate in fitness classes, and take part in several activities, like a car show, trivia, movie night, a campfire jamboree featuring a professional storyteller, and take in a performance from country music group, the Eli Young band. Attendees will have the opportunity to join product-focused seminars, where they can provide feedback on what future RVs look like.
“This is the perfect opportunity for us to gather input from our owners – the ones that use our products daily and know them best,” Mehta said. “Tapping them for feedback and suggestions as to how we can make our RVs better in the future is important to all of us at Winnebago.”
The former Winnebago International Travelers (WIT) Club is evolving as well, Winnebago said, to better support the Winnebago owner community and experience. Going forward, all Winnebago owners will be part of the WinnebagoLife community, which includes the GoLife Community, GoLife Blog and GoLife Perks, the moment they take delivery of their towable or motorhome product.
