As part of Community Futures Wild Rose’s 35th Anniversary road trip, we’re excited to spotlight North Campervans, a thriving business owned and operated by Jennifer Dorey. Situated just east of Calgary on her acreage in Rocky View County, North Campervans offers travellers a convenient, comfortable, and economical way to explore the outdoors. Jennifer joined the Community Futures Wild Rose family in 2024, but her journey began in 2016.
North Campervans started with a spark of inspiration and an unmet need. When family members tried to rent an RV and found none available, it planted the seed of an idea. Around the same time, a campervan road trip in the States revealed to Jennifer the joy and freedom of this unique method of travelling. An adventurous spirit, Jennifer saw a golden opportunity: to create a business that would make exploring her own backyard easier, more comfortable, and incredibly memorable.
From day one, the journey of building North Campervans has been nothing short of extraordinary. It’s been filled with valuable lessons, countless milestones, and moments of pure pride. One of the biggest takeaways? Never stop learning. Growth comes not only from embracing challenges but also from surrounding yourself with great teammates, cultivating meaningful partnerships, and fostering strong relationships.
Some of the most rewarding moments come from the customers themselves. Hearing stories about how their campervan adventures brought them closer to loved ones or allowed them to rediscover the beauty of nature is a reminder of why North Campervans exists. Whether it's through a camper rental or a tent purchase, being part of someone’s journey to connect—with others or with the great outdoors—is a privilege and a source of immense pride.
What started as a simple idea born from a gap in the market has grown into a business that’s not just about renting vehicles or selling gear. It’s about enabling exploration, inspiring connection, and creating opportunities for people to make memories in the most scenic corners of their world. North Campervans is proof that when passion meets purpose, incredible things can happen.
For 35 years, Community Futures Wild Rose has empowered entrepreneurs like Jennifer to transform their dreams into reality. With affordable loans, free business planning, and coaching, we’re proud to play a role in success stories like North Campervans. Jennifer’s story is an excellent example of what can be achieved when entrepreneurial vision and personal passion come together.
