RVFTA #83: Becoming a Weekend Warrior, Part One

April 07, 2016

On Episode #83 we are giving you the tools to become a fierce RV Weekend Warrior. Our listeners are constantly telling us that they want to camp more. So this week we are sharing our best tips for spending weekends at the campground with as little fuss as possible.

We share 7 tips that help us make the most out of our quick weekend getaways, from planning to packing to choosing your trip activities. Then next week, on Part 2, we will zoom in on the biggest stumbling block for most RVers...the food. Tune in next Friday to Episode #84 for our personal weekend food hacks, plus an interview with the CEO of Fireside Provisions.

Plus, we will share two of our recent weekend warrior adventures. Our first trip of the season took us south to Annapolis and Washington DC. Then last weekend we went about 15 miles up the road to Turkey Swamp Park to celebrate a birthday at the campground with friends.
