Article: You can save money, find like-minded campers, and find specialized programs that help you plan your trip and activities. It is best to know the specific benefits each club offers before deciding on a specific club.  When choosing a club, request brochure or URL information on what additional benefits and discounts club membership will bring you and your family or friends. Some key parts of the club to keep in mind are: price--is it an annual fee? Can you be refunded if you are unhappy with the club? Does the club offer useful discounts? Do you get discounts at specific RV parks and, if so, how much are the discounts? Do you get discounts at RV service centers, on RV products, or at RV rental agencies? Does the club provide assistance if you need it? Do they offer roadside assistance, emergency assistance, or RV insurance? Some considerations to keep in mind include the ability of the club to cater to your special needs and interests.  Does the club take into consideration whether you have kids or are disabled? Does the club have a specific interest that you are passionate about? Some RV clubs are based around a common interest such as a certain sport, outdoor activities like hiking or kayaking, or other hobbies, etc. Some clubs also cater to a specific group such as members of the military, families, or retired couples. This is based on where you are planning on traveling that year. Some clubs offer benefits for specific regions of the country. Deciding on a national or regional club relies on the fact that you know where you will be traveling in the next year. If you are planning on only traveling through New England, you should buy a regional club membership for that area, rather than a club membership that covers the entire country.
