Meet Your Hosts

Kathy Bergeron

We're excited for you to stay with us at the Elizabethtown/Hershey KOA Holiday!

Kathy and Bob Bergeron have been part of the KOA family since 2007. Kathy owned and operated her own business for more than 20 years before she and Bob embarked on a new adventure. When their two daughters grew up and left home, they sold their house, purchased an RV, and began their work-camping journey. Over the years, they have traveled across the country, worked at more than 21 different campgrounds, and gained experience in nearly every aspect of campground operations. Starting in entry-level positions and steadily advancing through the ranks, they have built a wealth of knowledge and a deep appreciation for the camping industry. Kathy and Bob are passionate about what they do and enjoy meeting new people wherever their travels take them. They value the friendships they have made along the way and look forward to creating many more memories as they continue "chasing 70" and embracing the campground lifestyle they love.
