Heritage
Herb Reeves, Jr. "He just couldn’t hold a job!"

While Herbert M. Reeves Jr. was still in the U.S. Army at the end of World War II, he bought a small travel trailer. In a very few trips he fell in love with the entire travel trailer lifestyle. When he was discharged, in 1946, he returned home to Kankakee, IL and opened Reeves Trailer Sales to provide his friends and neighbors with the opportunity to enjoy the RV experience as he had in the short time he had to experience the freedom. His retail experience grew and was successful, but in 1950, he demonstrated an industry "wanderlust" much like the early pioneers of our country. He left Kankakee, moved to Elkhart, IN, and started up the Florence Stove Distributing Company. In 1958, Reeves changed horses again and he reestablished the Covered Wagon brand as a travel trailer manufacturer. In 1965 totally changed directions again and opened the Arrowhead Park Campground in southern MI.

The SuperSlide is an element from the multiple patents for Comprehensive RV Construction Systems, which include the rooftop SkyDeck,
