About WIKI Recreation

Did you know there are over 6000 state parks in America?

That is just the state parks... not to mention the thousands of campgrounds and places to take your family on a relaxing vacation with all kinds of things to do, from fishing to white water rafting or even the closest place to hunt wild game. Just a little frustrated having to search for all kinds of things and not finding what you want. Well, now you have a choice. A true search engine for the recreation industry. Do you want to spend 3 days searching all the search engines? or do you want to come to the search engine that is all about outdoor recreational activities. From the beauty of Mount Rainier in spectacular Washington State with its hiking trails, to Palo Doro in Texas, the second largest canyon in the country spanning 120 miles long and 800 feet deep to the Atlantic Ocean and mountains of North Carolina, the back country of Moab Utah, or the beaches of Florida, we will make it our goal to bring you the best information we can find.

So, the question is, once you decide where to go, what are you going to camp in and where are you going?

Here at WIKI Recreation, we will strive to help you spend more time doing and less time searching.

Chief Recreation Officer, JoAnna Weeks

JoAnna Weeks is CEO, and founder of WIKI Recreation, and has been in digital marketing longer than she will let on and decided that it was time to have a search engine for the recreation industry. When we say recreation, we mean more than just RV's and campgrounds and state parks, but also boating, hunting, surfing, diving, hiking, and the list goes on and on. We can turn on a keyword for anything related to recreation including parts, products, services, and brands. Partnered with the development team from Yabsta, a software platform (over 10 years old), it makes our goal a reality. We wanted to supply results based on products/brands by state, so no "junk" or old outdated articles, etc. We truly are a highly targeted form of advertising.

Chief Financial Officer, Tye Johnson

Tye brings two decades of financial leadership to the Outdoor Search team. His broad experience spans investment management, banking, technology, and retail industries in both large and small organizations. Tye’s focus on performance at intersection of finance and operations helps propel WIKI Recreation's growth from a stable foundation.

When he is not analyzing the numbers, Tye can be often found exploring the Pacific Northwest with summer days on Lake Roosevelt Houseboats or a spring hike to Lake Hyas.

Chief Trailer Officer, Yuri Kulchytsky

Yuri’s goal is to have the WIKI platform become the go to source for all life's fun moments. His responsibility is to have our trailer cruising smoothly and, on its road, to becoming all things recreation.

He has technical background of more than 15 years and when we say technical, we do not mean he is an RV mechanic as someone might have thought. He is our software platform chief mechanic and a keen traveler. Yuri works with some of the brightest software developers and search engine marketing people on the planet. You will meet them soon.

He is certain that in time, WIKI Recreation will be the go-to place for all things recreation.

Chief Marketing Czar, Buffy Walsh  

Buffy has a diverse marketing background with a long, successful career in television marketing and branding. Most recently she has worked in web design and digital marketing with a focus on social media. She believes that with today's technology there is a marketing plan to fit every budget.

Living in the fine state of Florida, Buffy tries to escape that Florida heat whenever we send her on a trip, most of the time to a colder climate.

Chief Content Officer, Claire Dojcsak

Claire comes to us from Knoxville Tennessee where she tries to escape being the mother of 4, count them 4 children, can you imagine? She must work for us to keep her sanity and oversees writing and communications. Claire is a whiz when it comes to new ideas for our website, and you'll see some of her articles to help you in your new journey.

We know she is going to be the author of a very fine children's book one day soon.

Development team: Andrew and Alex, Irene, Galina, and Oxana

In our humble opinion, they are the best development team on the planet. Pizza and beer are not what usually fuels them, although sometimes it does. More often, it is dark chocolate and coffee that they need to keep them going.

Their brains are whirling day and night non-stop working to deliver the simplicity, stability, and speed to all Wikirecreation.com platform users, as well as proper recognition and visibility to all our future friends.

Expect cool new features to appear in Wikirecreation.com every now and then thanks to them. The development team says hi and welcome aboard! Thank you for joining us on this fantastic journey.

Chief Travel Writer, Andrea Kirkpatrick

Imagine yourself walking outside and stepping on the deck of a sailboat in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Yes, it happened to her in 2015. She randomly hopped on a catamaran and sailed from Australia to South Africa without ever sailing a day in her life. She is also a mean white water rafting guide when she isn't on the clock.

Andrea graduated from Missouri State University with a recreation degree and loves all things Recreation based. Who knew that existed right?!? She will be bringing articles about recreation experiences. Feel free to send her a challenge to do and she will write about it! She is all over the world, so don't be surprised to see her in your neck of the woods soon! You may also want to follow her on her website: www.finnigansflight.com
