Camp Rockaway

Spil© launched a full-scale program from Memorial Day to Labor Day that helped Camp Rockaway increase bookings >20% over the previous year. We created thematic content that would resonate with three key audience segments and used a mix of traditional PR and social media advertising to help drive targeted traffic to Camp Rockaway’s booking site.
