Cookie Makers Now Happy Campers
Two Early Show Winnebagos are crossing the country in June and July to surprise deserving viewers with a summer vacation.
The "Great American Vacation" tour continued on Wednesday when a special Winnebago pulled into Billings, Mont., to give away another fabulous vacation.
Thanks to a letter to The Early Show from their daughter, Saskia, Jan and Judy Boogman received the surprise of a lifetime.
The Boogmans, along with Jan's brother Han, own and operate the popular Caramel Cookie Waffle Co.
The couple was on hand for The Early Show broadcast at the KOA Kampground in Billings to demonstrate their locally-made delicious Dutch treats called Stroopwafels — even bringing a special box of the cookies along for the recipient of the vacation giveaway. Or so they thought.
So how surprised were they when Dave Price announced they were the ones going on vacation?
with the unsuspecting couple minutes after learning they received a "Great American Vacation"Saskia Boogman tells The Early Show that her parents work long hours and take off only one week a year — and that time is used to paint, clean carpets and take care of other maintenance at the bakery.
That's about to change.
The couple will hit the road for a two-week getaway in a luxury Winnebago from Pierce RV Center. During their road trip, they will be welcomed at any of 450 KOA Kampgrounds in North America. To top it all off, they also were given $1,000 in spending money.
