Campkins h has it all for your camping needs Campkins Camping Centre is a local di that has been serving the Durham Region since 1878. My name is Brad Campkin and 1 would like to tell you a little about what has made us successful for 21 years. It's funny how a business starts, and [ though | might share with you how ours began. The Campkin Family, Mom, Dad and four kids loved to go camping, It was really the only thing we all did as a family. It was a chance for everyone to pull together and share the chores of setting up camp, making a campfire and cooking the meals outside. My dad, Laurie Campkin, realized the potential of the camping lifestyle, and decided it would be a good thing to sell . Marlin Travel gets you to the show Marlin Travel in Port Perry provides many diverse travel services for the citizens of Scugog Township and surrounding area. From air flights to rail tickets, cruises or medical insurance, we can do it all for you For the past couple of years we have exploredithe demand for evening trips to Toronto to enjoy world class theatre.

Marina 715 WATER STREET, LAKEFRONT PORT PERKY ("Trobe camping trailers to other families, so it was then, in 1973, that he started a trailer sales business in Pickering. (At the teepee on Liverpool Road.) called Cedarwood Trailers. He had a partner. Soon his partner decided to do other things and Laurie started "Campkins Camping Centre Inc." He did sales, mom did the books, and over the years Brad (me), Brian (brother) and Cheryl (sister) worked in the business. Campkin's Camping Centre has always had a policy, if the customer needs help in any way "Let's Take Care of them". This has built up a loyalty over the years that has made Campkin's Camping Centre a very popular place to recommend to friends and family. We have another expression and that is "if you have a problem and you don't call to tell us, we can't help you." Please call. Over the years a lot of things have changed, We moved. to Highway #12, North Whitby, in 1988. We increased our brands that we sell and the types of recreational vehicles we stock. And our staff has increased in size to handle the increase in business that we do. We are located on Highway 12, just north of the railway tracks at Myrtle. We purchased the property because of its great frontage on the highway and also the number of our customers who drive by heading up to their trailer parks. It also is a very nice setting "out in the country" that has a more relaxed atmosphere for the staff and the customers. The following is a list of the wide variety of recreational vehicles that we stock and sell. Fold-down camping trailers - small enough to be towed by your small car yet big enough when open to sleep four adults and two kids. Travel Trailers - from 18 feet to 36 feet. You can tow your trailer to a park and be ready to camp in ten minutes. Park models - from 8 1/2 feet wide (with tip-outs) to 12 feet wide, our park models are to be set up in a campsite and used as a summer resort. Camper vans - new for 1994. Pleasureway Camper Vans that make your "second car" a camper that you can get away with and still park in the driveway. Just a note: to complete our services to our customers, we now own 'and operate a local trailer park in Nestleton, "Ontario. "Springwater Resort Inc", Jocated 16 minutes east of Port Perry, has 30 acres of natural park setting, with a forest, spring-fed swimming pond and large picnic area. So come on out, for a day, for a weekend or stay for the summer. "Why drive for hours when we're minutes away?"
