Title: Happy New Year!
Post by: GoneCamping on Jan 02, 2025, 08:38 PM
With another year behind us, and considering how bad that year was for me, I'm glad it's over, we get to move on to 2025 with a positive outlook.

Though I wasn't able to find suitable employment this winter in Florida (which I usually can't seem to find), they want year round campground workers, not seasonal) I don't really mind, I can survive without a job, and getting 6 months off per year is pretty nice actually!

I'm working a few leads for summer workamper jobs up in New England, have already interviewed with 3 parks up in Bar Harbor Maine (Acadia National Park area), and have a standing offer from the park I was at last summer. Today I applied for a job at a privately owned campground in Massachusetts. So I'm sure I'll get something up there, or go back to Sun Outdoors Saco/OOB in Maine. Amother year, another fist full of dollars!

I hope everyones new year works out for the best!!!

Happy New Year Cliff. 2024 was not the best for me either. The only happy last year was getting the new to us camper.

One month and we can start making reservations! Hoping to get out in mid-April for our first time!

2025 better be good for everyone!

Indeed, 2024 was a tough year and I hope 2025 is better!

Cliff, we stayed in a "cottage" at a Sun Outdoor campground in Oregon in mid-December to be able to go see a humongous Christmas light exhibit.   The place was super clean and the staff was very nice and helpful.  It's definitely a place we would go back to.  If they run all their locations like the one we saw, it must be a nice place to work.

Happy New Year!
Dave

From what I've seen, Sun Corporate keeps all their parks on a short leash.
