Allen Oklahoma Thrives on Idle Time Campers Surge
Allen Oklahoma defies small town decline through Idle Time Campers growth led by E C Peay and Jerry Peay. The firm employs about 90 to 115 seasonally, ships to 18 states with dealers in Indiana and Tennessee, and plans near 5 000 units and almost 3 million dollars in retail sales in 1972. The Chamber of Commerce, local bank, and school enrollment indicate a thriving community centered on manufacturing and regional commerce.
