Here's an interesting subject.... I have only been a local chapter member for a year now, so I cannot comment on this:
After speaking with a few of the old-timers, on more than one occasion someone has mentioned that the chapters are not like they used to be due to the RV stable of airplanes being so commonplace. They say what often happens is the RV guys evolve into a clique and even start going out for RV dinners etc...kind of breaking away from the rest.
I would guess that one factor that can be attributed to this, is the internet - apparantly Vans support site is so strong that the typical RV builder never need join a chapter...
Anyone got any thoughts on this?
