Beaver Coach Sales’ Marketing Manager, Katie Molby, said, “Children are the best at hide-and-go-seek because they can find fun wherever it hides. They can find it traveling in an RV for the first time or on a standard Tuesday. Our mission at Beaver Coach Sales is to provide a lifestyle that resurfaces this quality in adults. We are proud to support the children at the Boys & Girls Club in Bend, who remind us that life is truly about the journey.”
