The Newton KOA campground, 1601 E. 36th St. S., will be opening for the 2016 summer camping season Friday.
The Newton KOA is one of 485 open-to-the-public KOA campgrounds in the Kampgrounds of America system in the U.S. and Canada.
“We are very happy to again be offering wonderful camping experiences to this community and its visitors from throughout North America,” KOA President and CEO Pat Hittmeier said. “I know the friendly people in the yellow shirts will be waiting to take care of every need, and provide the great outdoors to their guests in the KOA way, just as we have for the past 54 years.”
To celebrate 54 years of serving campers, KOA is partnering this summer with Keystone RV Company to offer a great prize package through the “What’s Behind The Yellow Sign?” Giveaway. Beginning May 4, campers can enter to win a new Keystone Bullet Ultra Lite Crossfire 2070BH valued at $18,177 and a $100 KOA gift card.
