VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 13,
2022 /CNW/ - Pathfinder Ventures Inc. (TSXV:
RV) (OTCQB: RVRVF) (the "Company," "RV" or "Pathfinder.") is
pleased to report 73% occupancy during the Thanksgiving weekend,
achieving an 18% increase in occupancy from the prior year's
Thanksgiving weekend. Pathfinder Camp Resorts in Fort Langley and Agassiz-Harrison experienced 93% and 81%
occupancy rates respectively, from October
7th to 9th.
"The trend and demand for outdoor recreation are increasing as
people seek outdoor activities and a connection to nature," said
Joe Bleackley, CEO and Founder of
Pathfinder Ventures and Pathfinder Camp Resorts. "The RV and
Camping industry in British
Columbia is showing strong growth according to our occupancy
statistics and we are also experiencing an earlier start and
extension to the traditional family camping season. Customers
are camping earlier in the year and continue to camp later into the
fall months."
Mr. Bleackley also stated, "Pathfinder's winter camping program,
which allows for guests to stay seasonally over the winter, is also
showing an increase in demand partially due to more people moving
into RVs full time. Many RV owners are choosing an RV as a result
of rising housing costs and inflation. Some full-time RV users in
BC are being forced to boondock in grocery store parking lots, rest
stops and makeshift RV pads on farms that do not have the proper
zoning or infrastructure to support such RVs with proper
electrical, sewer and power requirements. Pathfinder's
Winter Stay program provides a safe
and inclusive community for winter RV guests to stay seasonally,
and we are positioning Pathfinder to be a leading accommodation
provider to all RV customers. Pathfinder is looking into
specific locations that would allow longer term RV guests."

known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of
which are beyond the control of the Corporation. The reader is
cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking
