[A Can of Worms?]

i got the impression the FMCA was orintated towards motor homers based on this statement.."FMCA is a social organization. In fact, perhaps the greatest member benefit is the fun and camaraderie shared by people who enjoy the common interest of motorhome travel." This was from the list of: Why join FMCA? #1>>>

YES

I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel. I am asking what is the general reason people voted YES or NO on the question of changing the group focus.

I'm trying to not suggest that a yes or no vote is either a good or bad thing. My desire to remain a member will not change. I'm just trying to get a general feel for the group as a whole to better find out where I feel I fit in.

I read this with an open mind. I feel kinda special owning a DP but then if I owned a 5th wheel than I'd feel the same.

The idea that owners of motor homes are special and different from any other RV owner is a bad path to focus on.

A ton of groups are sharing their membership with all and any form of RV use.

I know of campgrounds that discourage or refuse any unit over 10 years of age. Why?? Because of the fear of "poor trash"?

As it was stated we all share many of the same issues. Often a towed combo can exceed the cost of a coach.

We buy from the same suppliers, camp in the same places, share many of the same goals.

By including owners of other forms of RV forms we increase our knowledge base, membership potential, and increase our "friend" potential.

In my view, by excluding other styles of RVs, we are like a church that doesn't encourage new members and thus "dies."

How many coach owners owned other types of RVs first.

I hope to share campfires and coffee with like minded people.
