ANNIVERSARIES WE’RE NOTING …
This month, Todd Kuraisa begins his 16th season at Little Bear RV Park in Blairsden. He said he bought the business when he was 26 when, as he put it, he thought he knew it all and quickly found out he knew very little about the business. “Making mistakes is the best teacher I ever had, still is to this day. It was both humbling and a blessing in disguise as it propelled me to grow as a man and an entrepreneur. I couldn’t be more grateful for all the friendships forged. It’s by far the greatest aspect of owning this park, the personality and energy of our guests is second to none,” Todd said.
