We're not sure whether the "Big Jim" moniker is because of his size --- he's certainly a tall muscular man with wavy white hair; or it might be his big warm smile when he greets you -- it's easy to see why he's sold thousands of RVs over his long career; but more than likely it's because of his big heart -- someone willing to take a young family, give them a career and make them part of his extended family.

But whatever the reason, you know that the name "Big Jim" is well deserved.

To say that RVs are in his blood, might be an understatement. He was born in a trailer during the Great Depression in 1936, worked in his father's trailer and mobile home business in his teen years and ventured out on his own as an RV dealer in 1957. His entire life has been spent in the RV business.

It's amazing to see what this team can pull off each year with a minimum amount of people. This is a very strong association with dedicated members who provide a tremendous marketing opportunity for their dealer members, manufacturers, and the general public that is treated to five days of exhibits and educational seminars each year. The show is rapidly becoming a must-see destination trip for many RVers throughout the Northeast.
