On Monday November 30th during the RV Trade show, Jayco's Bertha Bontrager accepted the Titan award for her and her Late husband's (Lloyd) Pioneering efforts in the RV Industry. The award was presented by RVDA Chairman Brian Wilkins.
The Bontragers started with just a dream and a prototype in 1968 which has grown to be the worlds's largest private owned RV manufacturer. Today Bertha sits on the board of directors for Jayco which employs over 3,000 employees with 4 divisions.
In accepting the award Mrs. Bontrager said" Lloyd my late husband and I had a dream that was based on our love of God and family; and aimed at owning a business that would provide wholesome recreation for families to enjoy together. In 1968, in a barn on a country road, our dream became reality."
