Dave & Janice Evans

This is an blog which was written by Janice and Dave Evans who are Workampers and have had RV Maintenance issues to deal with…just like everybody else. However, here is the way that they have chosen to deal with their issues. Here is their blog : Ready to Go Fulltime RVing

We met the Evans when we were doing RV Maintenance seminars in Houston, TX at PPL Motorhomes.  We found out that they were workampers and are subscribers of Workamper News. I have been working for Workamper News since November of last year doing their press releases and social media.   So because of that, we promote the workamping lifestyle and Workamper News where ever we should go.  Janice and Dave shared with us their past in workamping and what dreams they are currently striving toward.  What a great couple they are so I suggest that you follow their travels and be a part in sharing in their dreams…..  http://www.facebook.com/pages/Ready-to-Go-Full-Time-RVing/140059842696916

March 29, 2010 Heber Springs, AR – Workamper News, declares April as being Workamper Education Awareness Month. Starting off on Thursday, April 1st – Workamper University’s Instructors; Jaimie Hall Bruzenak of RV Lifestyle Experts and Terry Cooper of Mobile RV Academy are holding an informative Webinar on the benefits of RV education and specials being offered through the University.

Steve Anderson, Editor of Workamper News explains. “After 23 years of helping thousands of great people find great jobs at great places, I know one thing never changes: Education is priceless! Whether someone is dreaming to jump out into the Workamper lifestyle in the near future or has been Workamping for some time now, the lack of education can cause the road to be full of obstacles that will interfere and delay that great workamper experience that everyone is looking for. With that in mind, we are promoting RV education Awareness in the entire month of April with several planned events and discounts that I encourage everyone to take advantage of.”

“All individual Prerecorded Educational Webinars, taught by the University Instructors, are being discounted 15% off the regular prices. Plus, we are encouraging everyone to attend the three planned Live Webinar Events scheduled for April 1st, 13th and 29th to receive even deeper discounts up to 25% off. With these incentives, there is no excuse for not making the commitment of becoming educated about the RV lifestyle and RV maintenance. Education always heightens the opportunities for success. It’s our job to help anyone become a successful Workamper.” says Anderson.

Andersons encourages all to attend the first planned Live Event, April 1st, 2010 at 7p.m. Central Time. Sign up for the 75 minute webinar at: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/392727818

It’s the “Centennial RV Recipe Cookbook – Celebrating 100 Years of RVing History – (1910-2010)” by Evada Cooper

          March 22, 2010 Heber Springs, AR -  Steve Anderson, Editor of Workamper News is announcing the upcoming release of the ‘Centennial RV Recipe Cookbook -  Celebrating of 100 Years of RVing – (1910-2010)” by Evada Cooper – employee of Workamper News. The collection of RV Recipes is being submitted by members of RV Clubs & RV Organizations throughout the United States with RV Maintenance featured throughout to make this cookbook a must have for all RVers.

           “All of us at Workamper News are proud to be a part of this new cookbook that Evada is doing in honor of the Centennial Celebration of 100 years of the RVing Industry.” Anderson explains. “Evada came on board with our company last November as a Virtual Copy Writer, taking care of our social media efforts and National Press Releases. She recently has taken over as our Master Resource Provider for our Ambassador Program. Her love for RVing has made her a great fit for this company and we support her in her latest endeavor which is taking on this huge publication that is planned to go national in all bookstores and other book outlets.”

          Mrs. Cooper explains her reasons for this undertaking.  “My main goal in this project is to show our nation’s love for RVing which I relate to with a lot of good times from our past. Naturally, when the words ‘Good Times’ are used, we think of family, friends and food.” Mrs. Cooper adds. “I am excited to have this opportunity to give honor to this Centennial of our RV Industry by putting together this very unique cookbook showing our history of the RV Industry with compiling a ‘Collector’s Edition’ of recipes collected exclusively from those who know and love RVing most and that is our National RV Clubs & Organizations. 

           “This cookbook will have a special twist to it in a couple of ways. Not only am I showing our appreciation of 100 Years of the RV Industry but also to our RV Groups/Clubs throughout this nation. Each person who submits a recipe and is chosen for the cookbook will be given a special feature page about their personal RV History, as well as the Group/Club they represent at no cost to them.  We, as RVers, have a lot to be proud of.  This cookbook will give recognition to those who have made our RV Industry what it is today.  My publisher which is TSTC Publishing out of Waco, Texas has promised to send out a free cookbook to all who are selected for this publication and it is our way of saying ‘Thank You’ for being a part of this cookbook. “

          Mrs. Cooper adds, “Another unique twist is: Every RV Enthusiast will want to reach for this cookbook because inside will be chalked full of RV Maintenance information given by Terry Cooper – Master Certified RV Technician /Instructor from Texas State Technical College (TSTC) of Waco, Texas.  My husband Terry is providing me with maintenance facts, tips, procedures, checklists and maintenance schedules that are so vital for the upkeep of our rigs.  Let’s face it! The initial investment we each have when purchasing our RVs is huge and the next biggest investment is keeping it in top running condition. Having this RV Maintenance information right at your finger tips, along with your favorite recipes, is a wonderful idea I know others will embrace.”

            “An important observation I have noticed while Terry & I go out doing RV Maintenance Seminars and other teaching is that nearly 60 percent of our attendees are women. They want to stay in the ‘know’ on RV Maintenance.  What a perfect tool this cookbook will be for them.  However, those men who love to cook are also the ones who will appreciate this cookbook and its technical information.” Mrs. Cooper concludes.

          Terry & Evada Cooper are the owners of Mobile RV Academy which is an online school for consumer RV Maintenance education. Recipes are being collected for this cookbook between now and April 26th.  RV Clubs/Groups having interest in being a part of the Collector’s Edition RV Centennial Cookbook  submit your recipes here    Should you have further request for details, go to: cookbook@MobileRVAcademy.com   .

UPDATE: On April 21, 2010 – The RVIA endorsed this cookbook at the ‘OFFICIAL’  Collector’s Edition RV Centennial Cookbook – Celebrating 100 Years of RV History.

I am excited about what the Academy has accomplished for 2009.  As we see the year coming to an end…. Terry and I are pleased with the all the courses that have been accomplished.   We appreciate all the people who have come on board with us to learn.

Our partnership with Workamper News – the company that connects ”Great Jobs…for Great People…in Great Places” –  has been a wonderful decision for us.  Steve and Kathy Jo Anderson, owners/editors of that company, are also great people.  We  had the opportunity back in October to take a trip up to the home of Workamper News at Heber Springs, Arkansas.  Terry and I enjoyed being a part of their routine at the office.    We met the staff – Jody (the Anderson’s daughter), Bill, David and Vangi.  Seeing the headquarters of the national organization was a real treat.  One of the fun things for me was to be in North Central Arkansas in October….the colors of autumn were breath taking.  I called Heber Springs, “A little bit of Heaven”.    

That’s all for today….I will blog more soon!

Along with the great information that was given, everyone loved the ‘give-aways’.
