We finished 2013 on a high note, thanks to you, our wonderful campers! We were again awarded the KOA President’s Award, based on your guest ratings. While we were just a couple of points shy of receiving our Founder’s Award, we saw clearly that Meadville KOA is headed in the right direction, and that our campers acknowledged that. So we thank you for your continued patronage, patience, and outstanding Guest Reviews! As always, the awards we receive from you, our camping families, are the ones that mean the most to us! We’ll continue to strive to meet and exceed your expectations!
We
have some great new events and returning favorites in our themed weekend lineup. This summer, we’ll have a Cinco De Mayo
Weekend in May, Civil War Living History Weekend in June, a new Knights and
Princess Weekend in July, Jungle Terry is back in August, and a tailgater
Weekend in September! But that’s not
all, we’re featuring a kiddies weekend for children under 12 one weekend each
month, just like we have the last two years, which will feature our free kiddie
train ride. And because you requested
it, we’re playing BINGO on Care Camps Weekend, Holiday weekends, and on BINGO,
BINGO, BINGO Weekend September 13, and of course, we use BINGO as a backup
on rainy weekends too! And of course, we
have our Pumpkinfest and Halloween Weekends returning in late September! We hope you’re checking our themed weekends (http://meadvillekoa.com/themed-weekend-events/)
and make our events calendar part of your calendar so you don’t miss any of the
fun!
We’ve
redesigned our website for the 2014 season!
So if you haven’t been on our website in a while, please check out our
new look at http://www.meadvillekoa.com/! We hope you’ll comment and let us know
how we did! We love to hear from you!
We’ve
upgraded our Wi-Fi for 2014, by adding all new equipment for improved service
and new antennas for better distribution.
It should met all your needs for light surfing, Facebook or other social
media, and emailing. We’ve tried to
improve our Wi-Fi, because in our 2013 survey, you told us that service was
important to you. In fact, it was number
two in our survey! We hope you’ll find
better service on your next visit. If you ever have a service issue, please come see us at the office and
report it, so we can help you. As Always, our Wi-Fi is a complimentary service, so you don’t have to pay extra for that.
Verizon
is working on improving their Cell Phone Services in our area! Verizon has added new towers between
Meadville and Titusville. We also know
from our 2013 survey, that this was the #1 item you listed as an utility that
you couldn’t be without. We’re
delighted, that Verizon is working on their service here. We thank you again for your patience! We will continue to push Verizon for improved services for you here, at Meadville KOA.
Also
coming in 2014 – cable TV! That’s
right, we’re cabling the park! Now you
can camp and watch your favorite shows, won’t miss any of the games, and can
keep the kids entertained if the weather is less than outdoors compatible! And yes, this was #3 on your list in our
survey last year!
Last,
but certainly not least, we’ve come up with some great discounts for you! We have a created a frequent camper program
that is new for 2014! You get 15% off
your second visit, and 20% off your third visit and additional visits! These discounts are good on any non-holiday
and non-special event weekends, and on campsites only. (We’re sorry, but we could not include cabins
in this discount program at this time.)
We hope this will give a reason to visit us more often in 2014!
So,
we’re hoping that with great new activities and our annual favorites, a new
website, Verizon installing more towers, improved Wi-Fi services, cable TV, and
great discounts, that those are all great reasons to spend a lot of your summer
at Meadville KOA Campground!
We
hope to see you soon! Until then, hang
in there, camping season is almost here!
