SergeantMajor Report post Posted May 3, 2010 My wife and I are FMCA members and are getting ready to live the full-time lifestyle sometime between Sep. 1st, 2010 and Jul. 1st, 2011. Since we will be living full-time on the road, is there a full-timer's chapter to join? I was born and raised in IL, my wife was born and raised in CA, we are both retired from CA, have our retirement LLC set-up in MT, and will have our residency set-up in TX via the Escapees RV Club. We do not plan to stay in any one area all that much so we are not sure how we could contribute much to a local chapter/club. We plan on attending one or both FMCA International Rallies each year (if traveling in that part of the country), but are not sure what chapters would be good for us? Can we attend Chapter Rallies as a guest if we are not a chapter member? Thanks for any suggestions that other full-timers are doing! Sergeant Major Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfe10 Report post Posted May 3, 2010 At the top of this page, click on "Chapters/Areas." When that opens, go down and click "Area chapters." Scroll over right and click on the Geographic area in which you have interest OR click on INTERNATIONAL. No, International Area chapters are not overseas. They are chapters that are not geographically based. People from all over the North America with similar interests participate in those chapters.

SergeantMajor Report post Posted May 3, 2010 Brett. I appreciate the info. I have sent off for additional info on four (04) of the International chapters for full-timers. Thanks, Sergeant Major Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimpat4649 Report post Posted May 4, 2010 Sergeant Major: Almost every Chapter will Welcome you as a Guest for a Rally. Don't be surprised if they convince you to become a member! Check FMC magazine for the monthly calendar, often with Contact Info for reservations, etc. A Chapter that was organized in Albuquerque may be of interest to you: Military Veterans. Keep an eye out for other FMCA plates on other units when you are in campgrounds; they are part of your family! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
