In this week’s episode of MC Fireside Chats, we talked about Nova Scotia’s booming camping and outdoor recreation industry with Sandra Fraser, the Parks Promotion & Development Officer of Nova Scotia, and Neil Demosthenous and Demos Demosthenous, the founders of SkyWeb, who discussed the importance of wireless services and connectivity at campgrounds.
Fraser proudly introduced Nova Scotia, a small province on Canada’s east coast surrounded by the Atlantic ocean, coastline, and beautiful beaches, with over 200 provincial parks, park properties, and twenty campgrounds.
According to Fraser, Nova Scotia offers various outdoor recreation opportunities, including camping, hiking, and more.
In terms of provincial funding and how Nova Scotia Provincial Parks prioritize which part of untouched nature to utilize and offer to guests, Fraser talked about Nova Scotia’s effort to collaborate with partners to look at the value of parks.
She also noted that one of the things they do to promote the park and showcase its beauty is investing in the infrastructure to improve the overall guest experience and putting new amenities.
Fraser highlighted that education is one of the most important things–making sure to get across conservation messages on how to be respectful and responsible in the great outdoors.
She said they are continuously working on making parks and outdoor spaces accessible.
Neil Demosthenous and Demos Demosthenous of SkyWeb networks talked about traffic shaping, how to provide a better internet experience to campers, and how it can make or break the campground experience.
“When everyone goes camping, they all want to be connected. “They highlighted that more and more campgrounds want to be connected now as there has been a shift in remote work over the last three years.
They also noted that some campgrounds had seen a considerable jump in reservations due to internet connectivity.
The Demosthenouses emphasized that while each property is unique in its form, many are looking to increase booking by offering connectivity on top of other amenities.
