ralleys
Why doesn't Good Sam have any rallies anymore. They were a lot more fun than FMCA rallies.

Many state Good Sam organizations do rallies. Ohio does three every year. They are smaller, far less expensive, and in my opinion far superior than the national rallies. State rallies are for the benefit of the attendees, not a sales tool for Camping World/Good Sam.
The state organizations are 100 percent volunteer and nonprofit, unlike Good Sam Enterprises which is a for-profit corporation. National is only interested in holding events that can be profitable to corporate.
Profit isn't exactly bad, a public corporation is required by law to make decisions which are best for the stock owners. I wish the Good Sam Club could be spun off separate from the for-profit corporation but it isn't likely since we are a "marketing tool".
