Nominate Your Local Heros
The RV and travel industry is giving back to those healthcare/essential worker heros who have done so much during this pandemic. We’re highlighting two opportunities for you to nominate someone you know for free RV and travel trips.
To thank healthcare heros for their brave efforts on the front lines, Outdoorsy is donating free rentals. Every winner also gets 1 yr of Harvest Hosts
Their goal is to distribute free road trips to rock stars who will need to rest, recuperate and recharge when the worst of this pandemic is finally behind us.

- Forest River Inc. is recalling 83 2016 Rockwood Lite RLT2604WS and Flagstaff Lite FLT26RLWS recreational trailers. Due to insufficient clearance between the front tire and slide out actuator, the tire may contact the slide out bracket and become damaged.
