Pulling out all the stops, it was hard for Pete’s RV not leave an impression at the 11th Annual Vermont RV and Camping Show 2/26 - 2/28 held at the Champlain Valley Expo in Essex Junction.

Pete’s exhibited RVs in four separate display areas including the main hall, a room with Coleman Pop-Ups, another packed with mostly travel trailers and a few fifth wheels, and still another hall for private viewing of four premium units.

It was all hands on deck at Pete’s RV with everybody working hard to transport the 36 units to the event venue and prep them for the thousands of people passing through the turnstiles during the weekend show.  The gargantuan task was completed with great success (including post-show, when everything needed to be broken down and transported back to the dealership!).

The heavy foot traffic through the weekend was a positive sign that RVing will be alive and well for the 2010 camping season.  With families leading the way on this movement, there was no surprise bunkhouse units received tons of attention.

Top honors for the weekend go to the Outback 250RS and X-Lite 31SQB.  Attendees looking for non-bunk units raved about the Sprinter 318FLS, Outback 295RE, and the always popular Montana 3750FL.

Honorable mention goes to Passport Ultra-Light travel trailers.  They offer those with limited towing capacity a lighter, yet nicely equipped option and several floorplans to choose from.

One more honorable mention goes to the Coleman Niagara pop-up trailer.  Very sharp and about as close as you’ll get to a hard-walled travel trailer!

Pete’s RV greatly appreciates all of the folks that came by to visit us from all over New England, Northern New York and Quebec.  Further thanks and congrats to all of our new RV owners.  Happy camping!

The winner of the $100.00 Pete’s RV Gift Store goes to Karoline F. from Enosburg Falls, VT.
