Petition To Keep RV Campgrounds Open by Gordon White - Posted in Truck Camper Magazine on March 17, 2020
We the undersigned petition federal, state and local authorities to allow RVers to shelter-in-place in national, state, local and commercial campgrounds during the coronavirus situation. Here are our petition demands:
1. Allow all RVers currently in place at national, state, local or commercial campgrounds to self- quarantine in place.
2. To keep park employees safe and comply with any existing or potential lockdowns, park staff should be allowed to go home and self-quarantine.
3. All park bathhouses and other public areas at the parks should be closed. These facilities require cleaning and maintenance that is not possible in a quarantine or lockdown situation.
