Lazydays® Raises Over $150,000 For Joshua House

February 13, 2004 – (Seffner, FL) – The employee owners of Lazydays® RV SuperCenter® (“Lazydays”), the nation’s number one recreational vehicle (“RV”) dealer, have raised over $150,000 to build a 10,000 sq. ft. Recreation Center on the campus of Joshua House. A subsidiary of Children’s Home Society of Florida, Joshua House provides emergency shelter care and residential group care services for abused, abandoned and neglected children in the Tampa area.

It took Lazydays’ employee owners working over two and a half years to raise the $150,000 to accomplish this goal. Ground breaking for the project is scheduled to take place this spring. The new Recreation Center will provide indoor recreation & sports programs, several classrooms and craft activities for all 60 of the children residing on campus.

Additionally, Lazydays’ employee owners have been supporting one of the six Joshua House homes and its 12 children through weekly payroll deductions since August of 2001. “Today’s society has found numerous ways to measure one’s success. We’ve chosen to measure ours not only by the ability, but also more importantly the willingness to share and give to others,” said Dana Philp, a 20 year employee owner of Lazydays® and who also serves as Secretary on the Executive Board of the Joshua House.

Lazydays® was founded in 1976 in Tampa, Florida. The company is employee-owned and is located on 150 acres with an 83,000 sq. ft. main building, 273 service bays, 300 RV campsites and over 1,200 RV’s on display. Lazydays’ expansive complex requires a fleet of 150 golf carts to move both customers and employees throughout the property. Additionally, the dealership serves over 300,000 meals annually to its customers, prospects and employees. The site has a 40,000 sq. ft. Camping World store, a Cracker Barrel Restaurant and a Flying J RV Travel Plaza.
