EPISODE 363: Behind the Scenes of the New Workamper.com Website Rebuild

This week, we hear from Luke Duquette, who is one of the owners behind Workamper News and the newly rebuilt Workamper.com website.

Luke takes us behind-the-scenes of a massive multi-year effort to completely rebuild the Workamper website from the ground up. This was not a simple redesign. It was a full rethink of how the platform works for Workampers, employers and staff.

During this conversation, Luke explains why the old system was no longer sustainable, how years of technical issues and burnout led to a hard reset for him and his wife, Jody.

EPISODE 362: The Founder of The Unity Folks Describes How to Be More Inviting in Workamping and Outdoor Recreation

For this week’s show, we are going to dive into a topic uniquely suited for Christmas, and that’s unity. The goal is to inspire more people to engage in Workamping and outdoor recreation regardless of their backgrounds.

We are joined by Earl B. Hunter Jr., the founder and president of The Unity Folks. It is an award-winning company focused on helping the outdoor and RV industries to invite and welcome people from all backgrounds.

Through The Unity Folks, Earl works with campgrounds, state and national parks, manufacturers and retailers to help them better understand why many people, especially those from underrepresented communities, have historically felt disconnected from the outdoors.

This week, we hear from a couple who has been RVing for nearly five years, and they have some great advice on ways people and companies can help make the RV lifestyle more inviting to all people.

They bought their first RV in 2019 and hit the road without even knowing Workamping existed. Along the way, they upgraded their RV, explored new regions, and built a lifestyle centered on adventure, discovery and meaningful work.

EPISODE 354: Brandon Bowles talks about RV’ing Dad Adventures

Brandon Bowles is the founder of RV’ing Dad Adventures. He has been traveling full-time with his two children, Wyatt and Everly, for the past six years.

A U.S. Army veteran, Brandon turned his mechanical skills into a new mobile career after completing training at the National RV Training Academy in Athens, Texas. He became a certified mobile technician and started Full-Time RV Services, a business that travels wherever he and his children choose to go.

Brandon and his kids call themselves “adventurers,” and that’s exactly what they are.

RV’ing Dad Adventures has also become a kind of digital scrapbook for the family. What started as a way to share photos and videos with relatives has turned into an inspiring platform that encourages other parents to bring their children along for the ride.

EPISODE 353: Workamping Jobs at Catskill Mountains Gilboa KOA in NY

Owner Cathy Reinard purchased the KOA in upstate New York just a few years ago, and has transformed it into a scenic retreat where guests can relax beside the Schoharie Creek, surrounded by mountain views, bald eagles and plenty of wide-open green space for recreation.

Because of the campground’s size and busy summer season, Cathy brings in about eight to 10 Workampers to fill positions in maintenance, housekeeping, at the front desk and leading activities.

She welcomes families, couples and solo Workampers, and values a team that blends the energy of local high school or college students with the experience and reliability of Workampers.
