It has been so long since I last traveled anywhere during Memorial Day weekend that I can't remember when and where it was.
This year, I will remain home and leave the holiday weekend road trips to others. There is good reason why I chose this.
A new camping report from KOA (Kampgrounds of America) forecasts that nearly 18 million campers will be hitting the road this Memorial Day weekend.
From RV Travel:
The camping research numbers for this summer keep rolling in. They all point to a record year for camping in the U.S.
A recent survey by the Recreational Vehicle Association (RVIA) is projecting that 56 million camping families will hit the road this summer in an RV. On Thursday, Kampgrounds of America Inc. released results of its May KOA Monthly Research Report. It projects more than 17.8 million households will kick off the camping season over the Memorial Day weekend alone in the U.S. and Victoria Day weekend in Canada.
If there's anyone reading this wanting to hit the road during Memorial Day weekend, unless they've secured campground reservations, good luck!
