Deb Closurdo won this beautiful necklace,
donated by the Herkimer, NY KOA.
“I’ve never won anything like this before.”
That was the reaction of KOA Kompass reader Debra Closurdo when she learned that her entry was randomly selected from the nearly 6,000 received for a Herkimer Diamond necklace. And it’s just one more reason that this Roseville, Michigan camper is definitely a KOA fan.
“We go all the time to the KOA in Port Huron, Michigan,” she said. “That’s our favorite one. It’s a really nice campground, with a railroad and engine that kids love to ride on. There’s also a path that leads out of the campground right onto a trail, so we love to take our tandem to head out for a ride.
This fall, she hopes to discover more KOA adventures, while traveling to Disneyworld.
“We plan on stopping at KOA’s along the way down to Florida, and as we travel back home,” she said. “We’ll come back along the East Coast, and we’re hoping to stop at some along the way. Maybe we’ll even get a chance to go to Herkimer.”
Thanks to Dr. Renee’ Scialdo Shevat and the team at the Herkimer, NY KOA for their generous donation. Not only will Debra Closurdo be receiving the necklace, she’ll also get a matching bracelet—bringing the total prize value to $1000.

I knew I was a big fan of the Herkimer KOA for a reason! Enjoy the necklace. I will have to get mine the hard way this year. Hopefully, with Kamping there 3 times this year (2010) I will find enough to make a nice necklace.
Hope they do this again!

Dommage que votre site ne soit pas bilingue…
Congrats on your win. Maybe one of us will be lucky next time.
My wife and I spent a night at the Herkimer KOA years ago (she’s been gone 13 years now) on the way home to Colorado after our first trip to New England and we saw that there were diamonds there – we didn’t believe it and were more interested that my several-greats grandfather was born there. I’ve not been back, but maybe sometime?
Congradulations on the beautiful necklace, we camped there this past summer and were having such a wonderful time we stayed an extra night we can’t wait to go back again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE the Herkimer KOA. So much to do there! We are from CA and my sister from NH met us there with her kids. Everyone, had a terrific time and my children have great memories of time spent with their “East Coast cousins”, looking for diamonds, floating the river, swimming, pancake breakfasts, etc., etc., etc.
We stayed at Herkimer last fall and like the campground the best so far.
It is also a real good to view the stars.
My wife did the Herkimer mine thing.
My family and I spent a week at the Herkimer KOA. It was probably one of the best vacations we had. We came home with a cache of Herkimer Diamonds.
Jenny,
Was it hard to find them?
Congrats on the necklace. I hope they do this again soon. I have been going to KOA campgrounds since I was a child and I love every minute of it!
Would love to play the game.
