The Instant Shade Awning (http://www.instantshadeawning.com/) has been submitted for consideration on the Gear Tester Review at The Camping Club (http://www.thecampingclub.com/).

The following is an excerpt of the question and answer session between Jennifer Guidolin of www.reserveamerica.com (The Camping Club) and Pearl Wehrman of Instant Shade Awning.

Jennifer: I would like to possibly post this recommendation online. Can you provide more information on the Instant Shade Awning. What type of camper would use it?

Pearl: Tent campers, car campers and RVer's will all love it! Nearly every campsite can benefit from extra shade.

Jennifer: Why did you purchase it?

Pearl: I'm 60 years old and tired of struggling with tarps.

Jennifer: Is it easy to store?

Pearl: What's to store? It is 6 feet long and about 4 inches in diameter. I can fit anywhere.

Jennifer: Is it heavy or lightweight?

Pearl: It weighs less than 10 lbs. and easily maneuvered, even by a wimp like me.

Jennifer: What's the best feature?

Pearl: I would say the fact that it's self-contained. The guy wires, stakes and poles are all included. Even the drop down banner doubles as a carrying case. It's an engineering marvel!

Jennifer: Anything else that campers should know about this item?

Pearl: The Instant Shade Awning is good to have on hand. You might need it, you might not, but throw it in the van anyway. Be prepared, like a good Boy Scout.
