Discover America Through The RV-2-50 Project

We are going to dive into the RV two hundred fifty project, and you'll want to hear every twist and turn. Welcome to RV Out West. I'm your host, Brooks. My family of four is base camp, is located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, and our RV adventures radiate out from there. Please grab a mug of coffee and join us as we discuss RV around the American West. From suite camping spots, gear and equipment to tips and tricks, we've got you covered. We are RV out west. Welcome back to the show, friends. I hope the holiday break gave you a chance to slow down, recharge, and maybe even dream a little about the next road ahead. We're back with a fresh energy, and you might have already noticed one of the changes. We've rolled out a new podcast artwork. So if you see something looks a little different in your podcast app, that's us turning the page into a new season. We're also getting ready to launch our very first RV Out West newsletter. It's going to bring episodes straight to your inbox, along with destination travel guides, practical tips and tricks, and plenty of inspiration to encourage you to hit the road and explore what's out there. If that sounds like something you'd enjoy, I'd love for you to sign up. You can find the link right there in the podcast app description, or head over to RV out West and join us there. The freedom of our RVing is more than open roads and scenic overlooks. It's a way of experiencing this vast country in the same spirit of exploration that shaped our nation from its earliest days. As the United States prepares to celebrate its two hundred and fiftieth birthday. There's never been a better time to hit the highway, discover stories etched into the land, and connect with the places that tell America's tales. RV travel invites us to slow down, find wonder in every horizon, and celebrate our shared heritage while forging our own adventures. One mile, one campfire and one sunrise at a time. Today's guest is Monica from go RVing, an organization dedicated to inspiring people to discover the freedom and possibilities that come with RV travel. Monica works at the intersection of storytelling, outreach, and education, helping new and seasoned RVers alike feel more confident about getting out on the road. Through initiatives like the RV two hundred fifty project, she's helping highlight the diverse landscapes, communities, and experiences that make RV travel such a powerful way to explore the country. We're excited to welcome Monica to the show to talk about her own connections to RV, the work. Go RVing is doing and where she sees the future of the RV community heading. Monica, welcome to RV Out West. Thanks for joining us today. I'm so glad to be here with you, Brooke. Thank you for having me. Yeah. I'm excited. I always, like, just kind of trying to get to know you a bit before we kind of talk about the work that you do. So how did roving first enter into your life and then perhaps kind of what drew you to it in your adulthood? Yeah, absolutely. RV has always been a part of my life. My parents, um, went RV before when they first met and their entire relationship. So I'm one of five kids born in Southern California. Um, and so the RV, um, our motorhome, the one that I mostly remember was our forty foot dolphin that we went up and down the coast, took two and three week long vacations. That's what we did in the summer. Every sports thing that we did, we took the the motor home. So it's always been a part of my life. So fifteen years ago I joined the RV Industry Association, and when I saw a job opening there, I was like, this, just this just kind of makes sense. And so it's been a part of my professional life now, um, for the last fifteen years. But since birth, essentially, uh, our viewing has been been part of me. That's cool. So what does RV travel kind of mean to you personally beyond just the mechanics of a trip? I mean, there's no better way to spend time with family and friends like you. Just get to unplug to the amount you want to. Um, the great thing about Arby's today is you don't have to completely unplug if you don't want to. But you. But you do have the option to. My children absolutely love, um, going out. Uh, we went down to Waco last year. I think it was their their most recent favorite, uh, trip. So it's just awesome to spend time with friends and family. Have you taken the kids to Luckenbach yet? For the chili cookoff? No. Uh. Not yet. Yeah. Awesome. I, uh, I'm also the podcast host for the See America podcast with, uh, from RV Miles. Oh, okay. And last season, I did a whole episode on the world's largest rattlesnake roundup, which is in Sweetwater, Texas. And it is amazing. It's it's amazing. I'm very curious. We are a Pacific Northwest kind of focused show. Um, so have you spent any time traveling in the Pacific Northwest, either in an RV or otherwise? And if so, tell me a bit about your PNW travels. Yeah. So my favorite story, um, for for the Pacific Northwest is my When my dad turned fifty, we surprised him at the Space Needle. So I think I already mentioned I'm one of five kids, so all five of us flew in and we surprised him, like at the top of the Space Needle. But the best part about it, that was awesome. All of my other siblings left, and then I stayed for another week, and with my dad and my stepmom, we went in the motorhome. They had a brand new puppy that like I slept on the couch with the new new puppy in the motorhome. And I will say, my favorite thing about the Pacific Northwest is the blackberries are just everywhere. I think I ate my body weight in blackberries at this campground like my dad was like, where did you go? I was like, I was just walking through the campground eating blackberries. And I think I tried to take some home. Like at this point in time, I was in college in Boston, and so I like tried to take bags of blackberries home with me on the plane. They were good for smoothies. After after that travel? Yeah. Of course. It was just such a wonderful time to spend with my dad and my stepmom and the puppy. And it's just it's a core memory, and it's it's Pacific Northwest and our being. This feels like a great place to maybe zoom out a little bit and talk about some of the bigger pictures within the RVing in the RV community. So from your experience, um, what advice or mindset shift do you think helps new RVers feel a little bit more confident about starting out? Because it can be pretty overwhelming if you've never done it or not grown up in the, you know, community, if you will. Yeah, and that's what that's what Gore being is here to help overcome some of those barriers. We we work to both inspire, uh, people who have never even heard of RV like, this is a foreign concept to me, that people are like, I don't even know what RVing is. One of the things Garvin does is experiential events where we bring an RV to an air show, a concert someplace where people woke up that day and didn't expect to see an RV. And one of the most enlightening things is people will walk into RVs and go, I, I didn't know if they feel like I didn't know there was a fireplace. Okay, like you may not think that, but people who are like, I didn't know there was a bed. I didn't know there was a kitchen. Um, and so there are people who who don't realize what these boxes going down the, the street, they've just never thought about what's in them. So seeing that on people's face being like, oh my goodness, like, this has all of this. So when you're taking someone from not even knowing what an RV is to then learning all the systems, and that's where go Irving tries to provide a lot of the resources, steps on how to set up your RV for the first time, things to know about checking into a campground. And so we try to provide a lot of those those resources. And my biggest tip for anyone, it's it's there anything you weren't you wouldn't travel overseas. You want to go get on a cruise ship. You want to do a lot of things without researching it first. Like most people don't just show up and like, let's let's just try this. It's probably not going to turn out great, right? And so that's the same thing with with an RV is do the research ahead of time. There's so many resources out there. And number two just take it slow. I mean there's the the like three hour rule. First time you're going out, don't go further than three hours from home. Because number one you may forget something. And so being able to run back home um, and also like let's let's get the kinks out. Let's, let's just, let's not go more than, than three hours and then just understand that it's going to be you need some time to get used to things. I mean, think about when you go to a hotel and you're like, where is the light switch? Like where? Like every every hotel, every short term rental. They're different. Getting in a rental car, I think I assume everyone does this. You get in there and then you sit there for five, ten minutes. You're like, okay, where are all the buttons in exactly? And an RV is no different. I mean, it's a vehicle. So taking that time to just go, okay, where are all the things? How do all the buttons work? How how does this work? Those are my my recommendations for the first timers. So really I'm really curious about kind of how go roving balances that inspiration with education, especially for people who are curious kind of we talked a little bit about it, but what really what what do you guys do to kind of balance that part of the piece, to inspire people to go and then to educate them. So really that inspiration is the is the bulk of what we do is, is where Go Irving operates is we really want people to know that Irving is affordable. Um, it is one of the most affordable ways to travel because you've got your accommodations and your transportation in one, you can make your own food like there are a lot of free, low cost things that you can do in campgrounds and with outdoor recreation. So it's one of the most affordable ways to travel. Now, it does have an upfront cost, but you know, this is one of the ways that you can get out there and explore your community. America as a whole, the greater continent. So really trying to share those real life stories. We have been leaning in more on influencers, which that's a that's just marketing, um, these days, but putting people who have never read before in an RV and having them show that experience to their followers, which gets to what you're talking about, like there is a learning curve there, but also people who've never done this before and going and having these great adventures and then also sharing all the different ways you can RV that you don't have to. It's not your New Year's resolution is to become an rver this year. And that means I'm gonna change my entire life. No. Like, if you have kids who do sports, do you know what's a great way to, uh, recuperate in between games at a tournament is to have the RV. You are going to be the most favorite, most popular parent if you're able to provide a climate controlled snacks galore place for for people to go if you like tailgating, if you want to get off the grid, there's all these different things that or if you like a lot of luxury, you're like, I really like hotels. Well, you should check out some of the RVs these days because they can put a lot of hotels, uh, to shame. So there's something for everyone. And you don't have to change who you are. There's an RV that that can complement your current life. And that's the message we really want to get out there, because there may be a stereotype for what a typical rver is. And the truth is, there's not a typical RV or that that doesn't exist. No, and that's true about the whole kids sports thing. My daughter is on a competitive cheerleading team, and so we go to tournaments. And I mean, it's not tournaments, what I call whatever competitions. And so we've, you know, we've left Seattle and drove down to Vegas and stayed at campgrounds in Vegas while we were, you know, and that way my daughter could sleep in her own bed and wake up and hair and makeup and high bow and all of that stuff was done in the trailer versus. And so everybody was comfortable and yeah, no, I, I totally get that. I can imagine I don't have kids who do soccer or baseball or those kind of outdoorsy sports, but having that at the ball field, to be able to go and get warm after a rainy game and have lunch would be just brilliant. That's what I grew up doing. My I played soccer for a while, but my sister was very competitive soccer player. So the amount of times we and let's be clear for the siblings also that are coming along. Um, having a nice place for them to be and, and I did um, horse showing. Um, and so that's, that's a big part of that as well. Um, and so yeah, we the, the motorhome went with us with us everywhere. Yeah. That's great. Quick pause in the conversation to give a shout out to our long time podcast sponsor, Camper Alerts, who helps make episodes like this possible? After the break, we are diving into what the RV two fifty project is and what it means for you. The seasons may have changed, but that doesn't make it any easier to find available campsites. Now you can get notified of sold out campsites when they become available with camper alerts. Choose your campground, pick your RV specific filters and set an alert. It's that simple. Visit Camper Alerts today and start setting your alerts. Thanks for staying with us. Let's get back to our conversation with Monica of Go RVing now with twenty twenty six here. Happy New Year by the way. Belated happy New year. Happy New Year to all the listeners. Happy New Year to everybody. I am really, really interested in the RV two fifty project and I want to first, can you just kind of tell us about it? What inspired it? Why go RV and kind of got behind it and give us just the high level of of what the RV two fifty project is? Absolutely. So I really love this this project. So America turns two hundred and fifty this year, which is so cool, so fun. A big cultural moment. There's the official America two fifty campaign. Every department of federal government department is doing something. So the Department of Transportation is doing the Great American Road Trip for the two hundred and fiftieth. Everyone is doing something. It was just obvious, like, what is a better way to see America than in an RV? And so early last year. This was something that we're like, this is something we really want to like. Own is this idea of celebrate America's two hundred and fiftieth in an RV. So RV two fifty. Um, so it's a play on like the two hundred and fiftieth and also two the fifty states. No one come at me. I know we can't take an RV that Hawaii, but it's still it's still works. You can maybe go read write one or how much you want to spend. Yeah, it it's doable. It's doable. Anything's doable. Just how much money do you want to throw at the problem? Exactly. Um, so what Irving is doing is we just want to create again that inspiration of here are all of the different ways that you can go out and celebrate our great country with an RV trip. So we kicked it off a year out. So actually last summer and we initially released three travel guides. So really the. Main focus of the Bt50 is providing inspirational travel guides for people. You don't have to take this exact trip, but it's more like you could. But also, here are all the different things you could do. So we did a six month loan. If you want to take six months off and go really see America, we've got a six month itinerary for you. If you want to do something a little more feasible, that's six weeks that could even be broken up. Then we got a six week one, and then we did a long weekend around the D.C. metro area to hit some of our our nation's capital highlights. So that's how we started it last summer. And we have been building out, uh, travel guides, working with a number of, uh, dmos the, the local travel organizations for different states. What does DMO stand for? I'm not familiar with that. Destination marketing organization, I think is what got it. Okay. It's one of those things that's just like an accident now. But it's. It's your tourism offices, so. Okay, so, like, travel Oregon or visit Portland. Um, visit Cannon Beach, visit bend and visit Idaho. Those are in particular the dmos that helped us put together a Pacific Northwest travel itinerary that we have live on the website right now, and to really inspire people to go take their RV trip out in your area. Yeah, it's pretty amazing out here. It's where the mountains meet the ocean. Yeah, well, that is a really cool project. Are you asking then to on the RV two fifty project, is there any opportunity for users to tag and flag and upload their own content? So go RV and can mass compile all of these experiences to really celebrate the two hundred and fiftieth birthday of the United States. Absolutely. So something that is going to be launching later in January. Um, is we have a passport program, so there are going to be physical passports, um, that are going to be available for pickup at dealers and maybe some campgrounds, specifically locations that that tell us they want to have some of these go. Irving is going to be sending them out. We will have a landing page where people can see where they can pick one up. They can also download just if you want to print out one on your own, because you can't visit one of these places, that's great too. But what we would love for people to do is it's a travel journal. So when they take a trip, maybe it's one of the RV two fifty trips that we have the itineraries for, or it's your own trip, put down your highlights and and all of that. It's a nice little travel journal, but what we would love is for people to upload some photos and video from their trips to go Irving, and there's going to be a portal to be able to do that. And the first two hundred and fifty people who do so will get, um, some And Gavi and swag. But everyone is going to be entered into a larger drawing for for grand prize. Can you tease with that grand prize is yet or do you know? So the grand prize is to have your campground fees paid for the year up to five thousand dollars. Cool. That is really exciting. I could do a lot of trips with that. Yeah. What kind of is your hope that our viewers will take away from the RV two hundred fifty project when we're now, let's say, a year down the road and it's now January twenty twenty seven. You know, what are you hoping that that people will have as their takeaway from this project? So I hope this doesn't sound too corny, but like, we're really trying to get our viewers to raise their hands and be like, I love this. Like, look at this amazing trip that I was able to take. Look at what I was able to do with my family. Look what I was able to do with my friends, and tying it to this cultural moment where everyone should be loving that it's. It's our country's two hundred and fiftieth birthday. Like, that's a really great thing to celebrate. And that our RVing is an integral part of that. So just want to create this groundswell and that maybe someone you're following on social or, or you see, oh, they're an RV or two and, and having people because there are eight point one million RV owning households out there. And there are a lot that, you know, you don't you don't know that you could you could be playing sports with someone for a decade and not know that they are an RV. So that just creating more of that community in the RV and community is already fantastic, but just having more people raise their hand and be like, I'm here and I love it. Yeah, that's so true. You know, I've told this story, but, um, my wife grew up not being a camper, so I was the one that inspired her to be a camper. And when it came time for us in our early forties to think about, maybe we had two young kids at that time and we weren't talking about it. She said it was getting it wasn't camping, and we had this whole debate about it wasn't camping. And it was like, what are you? We're still camping. But like, come on. And now I will, like I don't go camping unless I can bring my ice machine. I need ice for I need the rocks for the cocktails, you know, like it's an important part of the campfire. So, you know, I've come a long way from a backpack in the North Cascades to. I now schlep an ice machine, and I am not apologizing for it. So you definitely want to get off the ground at some point. Also, like that's the some of the hardcore campers we, you know, like come around and they're like, you know what? Yeah, that would be nice. Like you could still rough it like, and there are still some great RVs out there that you can get. Um, not everywhere you can get with just a backpack, but you can get you to the trailheads. Yeah. And, you know, come back and have a little, little more comfort. Um, at night. Yeah. Like those tiny little teardrops that you can tow behind a Jeep. They have a high clearance for Forest Service roads, and yet you'll have a bed in the kitchen, so. Yeah. It's great. Before we kind of wrap up, um, I very much would like to step back and just kind of do a little bit of a reflection. And after hearing so many stories over your fifteen year span there working for Go Irving, what do you think RV travel offers people that other forms of travel often don't? Yeah. So you Wayne, we know this from Irving does a ton of research. And so we know that while there's no typical RV, people want to be able to set their own pace. They want to be able to have that feeling of of home and be able to access adventure. So let's make no like confusion. Like other forms of travel, are are coming for the the RV ING audience. You've got hotels that are doing more outdoor experiences, um, short term rentals like Airbnb and the like, but things like, yeah, those are great secluded places, but you are literally in someone else's home like you, you you don't have your own space, cruises and things like that. They have great itineraries, great, like places to go and visit. But you're on someone else's schedule. Like you don't get to say, I mean, you can miss the boat, but there's going to have some repercussions there. You don't get to say, actually, I like this place. I'm I'm gonna stay here a little bit longer. And that's that's not an option. And so there are a lot of travel options out there. We also know that RVers do a lot of different types of travel, but there's something about being able to set your own pace. Have the affordability. Like have all of your stuff there. Um, that just there's no other form of travel that offers you that. And that is so true. How has working so close with the RV community shaped the way that you think about Americans? Oh, I mean, our views are just some of the best people out there. You know, you were asking earlier about that first timer and if you need help in the campground. My my mom goes and she's got her motorhome and she goes out RVing on, on her own. And, and every time she comes back, she's like, oh. And the nice gentleman next door, the nice lady in the other one helped me with what I needed. Like they are, our beers are just some of the very best people in in our country. Um, and it's an amazing community that is looking out for each other and and there to help. Come bring the cocktail over at the the campfire. Just. Just great people. Yep. I was camping, uh, in Pennsylvania. I was on a cross country road trip in my RV, and my water connection was leaking badly. And I was outside trying to connect, you know, and reconnect and, like, look and all of that. And some old timer came up with a bag of washers for garden hoses. And he was like, here, I think you need one of these. And he gave me one and put it in, and it stopped my leak and I was like, boom! I now need to make sure that I have a bag of garden hose washers in my, like, tool bag kit in my RV for this exact reason, and that was not something I had on board. And it was just yeah, it was very cool and helped. Yeah, absolutely. What do you think the open road represents for people today? I mean, it's especially like we've been talking about America's two fifty. Like the freedom. Like you have the options. It's it's unlimited potential. Where where do you want to go? And it's a little bit of a cliche, but like it's true. Also it's just it's just freedom. And then with the RV it's the flexibility freedom flexibility and then control. Like you get to control your environment. You control your senses. Like all all of that freedom, flexibility, but also control our are the most succinct ways that I describe the RV lifestyle. You know, I think the open road and the idea of a road trip is really quintessentially American. Our interstate highways were built, you know, and even what's cool about this RV two fifty project, too, is that we're also celebrating the one hundredth anniversary of the Mother Road this year. Route sixty six is hitting one hundred. So, I mean, there's a lot of reasons to kind of celebrate the road trip in twenty twenty six this year. It's it's pretty amazing. And to have our interstate systems like we do, you know, to be able to just go, it's pretty amazing. What gives you the most hope or excitement when you think about the future of RV? And I'm going to include the community in that, but kind of using your knowledge as a RV industry insider and expert kind of what's giving you the most hope or excitement when you think about the future of RV? So we do a demographic profile, um, every three to four years. Um, and the last one came out a little under a year ago. The median age of an Rver has dropped from fifty three to forty nine, which is a significant drop in in three years. Our viewers are now younger, they're more diverse, and they have more kids in the home, which means we are introducing our RVing to a younger generation at a greater level than we have been doing in in the past. And we know it's great that you have have brought your wife along and into the RV lifestyle. But we know that one of the primary indicators of whether someone's going to own an RV as an adult is if they went RVing or camping, um, as a child. And so getting this is great for for the RV industry as a whole. It's also great for the RV community. Having more younger, more diverse is also like so important everyone. And this is something that Gaurav has been doing for decades. Everyone should be able to see themselves as an rver. Garvin works very hard to make sure that our advertising, our marketing, shows everyone you should be able to see yourself in a go roving ad. And because that's representative of who who our viewers are. So that's what makes me, like, really hopeful for the future is Arvin truly is is for everyone. I know my fourteen year old son is already talking about an RV that he wants to get when he, you know, is an adult and looking at that road, which is exciting. Well, where can people follow along and learn more about Go Irving and the RV two fifty project? Head over to Garvin Comm. There is an RV two fifty page linked from the homepage. We are also on all of the socials. You can find us on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest. We've got a lot of those, uh, itineraries on Pinterest as well. Uh, so yeah, we're pretty much anywhere online. And then my final question, what are we trip are you most excited about personally, that you and your family are going to be taking in twenty twenty six? So we are hoping to do a Grand Canyon trip. We? I've been to the Grand Canyon a couple times on one of those RV trips as a child, but my girls were born in Virginia. I live in Texas now, but we have not been out to the Grand Canyon. Actually, my husband has never been to the Grand Canyon out either, so that is the trip I'm trying to make happen this year. Very exciting. We did on our final loop back. We did that. And, um, I have a memory I will absolutely take to the grave. My daughter was probably seven, I think, at the time, and I'm holding her hand as we're walking from the parking lot to go to the rim and unprovoked, when she got to the rim, she just went, whoa! And like that was her honest reaction. It wasn't planned, it wasn't staged. It just blew her little seven year old mind. And that is absolutely that one single word I will be taking to my grave. That's awesome. When my life passes before me, that will be. I'm sure that. That is amazing. That sizzle reel.
