Chicago,
IL – August 2015 / Newsmaker Alert / Camping
World, the nation’s largest RV and outdoor retailer, and Good
Sam, the world’s largest RV owners organization, announce the grand
opening celebration of their newest SuperCenter at 1355 Tara Street in
Idaho
Falls, Idaho beginning Friday, August 21st through Saturday, August
29th. The location, aptly named Camping World of Idaho Falls, will offer
a wide array of RV sales, service, parts and accessories for the outdoor
enthusiast and joins a dealer network that spans over 100 U.S. locations
with nearby SuperCenters in Meridian, ID (Boise area), Salt Lake City,
UT and Rapid City, SD.
The
Camping World of Idaho Falls facility is a re-location from the OK Trailer
RV dealership formerly located at 480 North State Street in Shelley, Idaho
that Camping World acquired in the fall of 2014.”The acquisition of the
OK Trailer dealership last year was an exciting development as the Idaho
Falls market is an ideal area for us to expand our business offering,”
said Marcus Lemonis, CEO and Chairman of Camping World and Good Sam, and
host of CNBC’s The Profit. “In our ongoing efforts to offer consumers a
convenient, one-stop location to serve all their outdoor and RV needs,
we acquired space for a new, larger facility that is conveniently located
just off I-15 and less than 9 miles north of the previous facility.”
The
grand opening celebration will begin on Friday, August 21st and run through
Saturday, August 29th, featuring price specials, door prizes and a ribbon
cutting ceremony on August 21st at 11am, which will be attended by the
local Chamber of Commerce and representatives from the City of Idaho Falls.

with adult contemporary station KLCE (97.3FM). Additionally, free lunch
will be offered on Saturdays during the grand opening event, August 22nd
