Wonda Welch
Lead Housekeeper at Gettysburg Battlefield Resort
Wonda has been with the resort since September 2018. She began as a part-time housekeeper and quickly stepped into the lead role as the then lead phased out for health reasons. Wonda brings a larger-than-life personality to the job and a great sense of dedication to her work and her team. Under Wonda’s direction, Housekeeping has accomplished many needed changes and continues to work toward more of those changes.
Wonda and her husband, Bernard can be seen out on their motorcycle enjoying the surrounding countryside. You will often find Wonda going out of her way to help a member in need, watching out for the safety of the little ones, or providing a word of encouragement to team and members alike. She brings refreshing honesty to all that she does and speaks. Wonda’s home is in Alaska, but we are glad she chose to come work with us and stay at her home away from home.
The Houser Family
Gettysburg Battlefield Resort
Deb and Tim Houser have been members for about 5 years, staying at Gettysburg Battlefield Resort. Although they have only stayed at Gettysburg they are looking forward to visiting all 9 when they retire! Some of their favorite memories include all their family gatherings and celebrations. They loved Fear Factor weekend when they were dared to eat everything from catfish to live worms! While enjoying all the adult activities, their grandson loves to make slime! At the beginning of their time with us, they stayed in our pop-up and then sold that and stayed in a tent all last season while searching for their perfect 2nd home. Finally finding it this Spring and couldn’t be happier with their travel trailer. The best advice they would give future members is, “come ready to explore Gettysburg! Everything from history, ghost tours, great restaurants, and shows!” Favorite meal, “Beer can chicken and sausage gravy and biscuits are our favorite go-to meals”
We are so glad to have the Houser’s a part of our TRA Family.
The Reeves family includes mother and father, Melissa and Larry, and four kids, Kenzlee, Bentley, Adaline, and Lilah. They stay with us at Sycamore Lodge but have just decided to be full-time RV’ers!! When asked what their favorite memory was they said, “Too many…wow…love the activities!!! We all Loved loved loved the water wars, Christmas in July, and all the fun at the pool and just being together!” We are so happy to have them a part of our TRA Family!
What is a member build? A member build are projects planned and built by the help of our amazing members! They add a special touch to each of our resorts.
Steve Baldelli
Steve Baldelli started Travel Resorts in 1986 at the age of 27 after a call from his friend Jim who had found some beautiful property in Pinehurst, North Carolina after a round of golf. Steve flew down from Minnesota to come to see the land and when he got there, there were 12 unfinished RV sites, a lodge, and a hole in the ground that was supposed to be a pool. He fell in love. Steve and his partner had no idea how to run a campground, but he knew he wanted to focus on three things: Taking people out of their normal element, making it close enough to home but far enough away to be a get-away, and making it affordable so all families could enjoy the campgrounds together multiple times a year.
35 years later, Steve has built Travel Resorts into 11 premier RV campgrounds from Florida to New York and now just recently has started venturing into the Midwest!
As a father of 3, an avid wine connoisseur, foodie, and lover of travel, Steve lives a busy adventurous life, but his heart is in providing the best camping memories to his members. You can find him at any of the resorts throughout the year, interacting with members, planting fun ideas in the activities directors’ heads, and always thinking about how to enhance our members’ experience. Because of Steve and his vision, Travel Resorts really is the definition of the Pursuit of Happiness.
