Rachel Engen of Colorado has been named the winner of Go RVing’s “Just Beyond Your Door” contest, earning an RV vacation to Lake Tahoe with her husband and daughters later this summer.
The announcement comes days before National Go RVing Day on June 14, an annual event encouraging Americans to launch the summer travel season with a recreational vehicle adventure.
Engen’s entry highlighted the practical appeal of RV travel for families managing gear and activities.
“This would make traveling with the kiddos and all our bikes and paddle boards way easier!” she said.
Go RVing’s “Just Beyond Your Door” campaign aims to introduce more families to the benefits of RV travel, which has gained popularity as a flexible way to explore domestic destinations.
According to a News and Insights report of RVIA, as part of the prize, Engen’s family will receive a gift card for an RV rental, fuel, campground accommodations, food, activities, and branded gear to enhance their Lake Tahoe trip.
Karen Redfern, chief marketing officer for Go RVing, said, “We’re thrilled to help the Engen family experience the freedom and flexibility RV travel offers.”
The initiative reflects the industry’s broader effort to highlight RVing as an accessible vacation option for families balancing busy schedules and varying travel preferences.
“From Colorado to Lake Tahoe, their journey is a great reminder that incredible adventures can be found just beyond your door,” Redfern added.
National Go RVing Day serves as an annual reminder for the entire industry—from park owners to manufacturers—to showcase the unique experiences RV travel makes possible and to connect new travelers with resources at gorving.com.
“Go RVing provides a platform to amplify the voices of adventure campers, leisure campers, foodies, tailgaters, outdoor enthusiasts, families, digital nomads, and more, by empowering them to share their own RVing stories in their own words,” Go RVing indicates on its website.
