Koa's New ‘family Zone' Will Enhance Family Camping Trips

(Monday, August 22, 2005) - Kampground of America's popular camping website, KOA.com, has a new section that will help take your next family camping trip to a whole new level.

The "Family Zone" is designed to provide families with everything from timely advice and useful checklists to campfire-tested recipes and family activities. KOA.com is the first camping website to feature such a comprehensive tool, where even the most experienced campers can find tips and activities to make their camping experience even better.

"We realized how much time we could save parents by giving them a planning resource on our website," says Tracy Kern, director of online marketing for KOA. "With categories like Camping 101, lists of camping activities, campfire stories, recipes and more, we're really helping parents to plan a fun trip even if they've never been camping before."

With more than 10 million visitors projected to visit KOA.com in 2005, KOA is in a prime position to deliver a helping hand to the 62 percent who camp with their families. KOA has already received positive feedback from campers about the Family Zone.

"The family zone has more information in it than I ever expected," says KOA camper Dana Pulis. "The Family Zone is very insightful for families with children and provided me with easy, fun, inexpensive ideas that I didn't have to come up with on my own. It's nice not to have to be the idea person all of the time."

Camping families can even print out their own trip book, complete with how-tos, stories and games, recipes and postcards... they're all there. There's even a cover and empty scrapbook pages for journal keeping and sketching.
