New York – [Feb 28, 2025] – Campground Owners of New York (CONY) is thrilled to announce the launch of Fire Up Forum, a new virtual event taking place on April 1, 2025. This first-of-its-kind gathering is designed to bring together campground owners, hospitality professionals, and industry leaders for a dynamic day of learning, networking, and strategic preparation ahead of the 2025 season.
Attendees will gain expert insights into critical industry topics, including workforce development, New York-specific updates, key trends, and more—all from the comfort of their homes. With the ability to connect with vendor members before the season kicks off, participants will leave feeling inspired, informed, and ready for success.
“Our Spring Zone Meetings have always been a valuable resource ahead of the upcoming camping season and we want to continue to provide the necessary tools to set all of our members up for success”, said Emily Simmons, President & CEO at CONY. “We listened to feedback and understand that sometimes attending in-person events just isn’t feasible, whether it's due to scheduling conflicts, location, or even cost. Offering a virtual event is a convenient way to reach more of our members with the information they need this spring, and to connect them with vendors who offer the products and services necessary to prepare them for the season ahead.”
