0:00.0	I'm Jason Epperson coming to you from Baja California,
0:02.8	serve Mexico and it is time for this week's RV and camping news round.
0:08.4	First up, a follow-up from a couple recent stories.
0:10.9	Two bills in South Dakota, Senate Bill 124 and House Bill 1232 that would have

0:21.2	Both bills have been deferred to the 41st Legislative Day,

1:09.5	According to the February edition of KOAs Monthly Research Report,
1:13.3	the upcoming camping season is expected to be strong.
1:16.2	The number of active camping households for the month of January increased by over 2 million
