Why should you belong to a
local Chapter?
The Good Sam RV club got its start 40 years ago when a handful
of RVers put Good Samaritan bumper stickers on the road and in
campgrounds on their rigs so fellow members would know they
could get help on the road. From this small Club we grew. In the
early days, Good Sam Members spread the word at RV parks and
other Club events. Soon everyone wanted to know how to get a
Good Sam "smiling face" decal.
You should belong to a local chapter for the fun, fellowship,
games, travel, eating, craft, love of the outdoors, camping,
etc. A chapter is made up of a varying number of rigs. The
individual chapter decides on the number. Chapters support each
other by having monthly campouts, or during winter months,
having dinner meetings. They camp together and support each
other when there are problems. Local chapters have vests in
their chapter colors, patches, etc. The more who are involved,
the more things you can do. Many chapters support local
charities; most all the chapters support Special Olympics and/or
Dogs for the Deaf.
