CALM AND CLEVER VIDEO
CALLS OUT BAD BEHAVIOUR
A video setting expectations of guest behaviour has resonated with caravan
park owners and holidaymakers alike.
In February, Queensland’s Cobb & Co. Camping Ground shared on their
Facebook page how recent bad behaviour by some guests had “strayed away
from the humble, respectful values that Cobb & Co. have laid down”.
With staff members speaking to screen, viewers learn that there has been a
shift in behaviour by a minority that was ruining the camping experience for the
majority.
Instead, potential guests wanting to “drink and party” are recommended to stay
elsewhere as drunken and disruptive behaviour will not be tolerated.
The video references park rules around behaviour and stresses that the focus on
a safe, respectful environment for guests and staff.
The Facebook post was a huge success for the park, with more than 2.7K likes,
250 comments overwhelmingly in favour of the post and 139 shares.
A park representative told The Parkie, they had been overwhelmed by the
positive response, with “100% of guests in favour and very supportive of our
stance”.
