Camper Awnings

This may seem like something we should know but if it had not been for a fellow campers misfortune, we may not have thought about it. We typically camp in the fall to spring months and had not encountered any large amounts of rain. However, our friends did and during the night water ponded on their awning until it collapsed. Lesson learned always make one end a little lower to allow water to run off. On a trip to Sebastian Inlet it rained quite a lot and this saved our awning. Also if you have time and a storm is approaching, it's a good idea to take down the awning. Several campers lost their awnings in one of the storms.
