Go RVing's Karen Redfern To Be Inducted Into RV/MH Hall Of Fame

Go RVing is excited to announce that Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President Karen Redfern will be inducted into the RV/MH Hall of Fame as a member of the Class of 2023. Karen has been a part of the RV Industry for 33 years, and behind the founding of Go RVing over 25 years ago. She previously served as Go RVing Vice President of Brand Marketing & Communications before being promoted to her current role in 2022.

As Chief Marketing Officer, Redfern leads a team of marketing and communications professionals responsible for the industry’s brand marketing campaign, including strategic marketing, social and digital media, traditional advertising, video content creation, public relations, experiential marketing, partnerships, and consumer trends and research.

“We are incredibly proud of Karen and her fantastic achievement,” said RV Industry Association’s President & CEO Craig Kirby. “Her consistent dedication and leadership have helped the Go RVing team introduce millions of Americans to the freedom that RVing offers, and we applaud her incredible contributions to the industry.”

“I am so humbled to receive this recognition when I look at the industry icons before me who are members of the hall of fame. It has been a privilege to work in this industry for the past 33 years and see so many advances and changes while still retaining the core principles of what makes RVing a fixture in American wanderlust,” said Redfern. “Being part of the creation and growth of the Go RVing program has been phenomenal and it wouldn’t be the success it is today without the amazing team of marketing professionals I have the honor of calling my colleagues each day.”

“Go RVing has been a critical component to the growth of the RV market and much of that is thanks to the incredible work of Karen and her team,” said RV Dealers Association President Phil Ingrassia. “It has been an honor to work with Karen over the years and we congratulate her well-deserved recognition.”

The RV/MH Hall of Fame recognizes, preserves, and honors the history, pioneers, and individuals who have been instrumental in making the RV and Manufactured Housing industries what they are today. The RV/MH Heritage Foundation Board of Directors has announced that inductees will officially join the Hall at the Annual Induction Dinner, which will be held in August at the Hall of Fame in Elkhart, IN.
