The Awards of Excellence program was part of the ARVC national convention December 2, 2004 in Savannah, Georgia. ARVC’s RV Park of the Year award is the highest possible honor in the campground and RV park industry and is judged on national directory ratings, operations excellence, community service, association involvement, park promotions, management skills, education, and employee training techniques.
“This is an absolutely fantastic honor and we are thrilled to be recognized with this award by our peers in the campground and RV park industry” said Philip Koch, owner and President of Lake Rudolph. “Our goal five years ago was to make Lake Rudolph one the best parks in the nation. Our staff has done a tremendous job in making this goal a reality.”
The RV Park of the Year award is the second major national honor for Lake Rudolph in two years. During the 2003 convention in Las Vegas, Lake Rudolph received the ARVC 2003-2004 National Website of the Year.
