The wife and I are members and officers of a local chapter.
Keep in mind that all the state directors, assistants, and chapter officers are volunteers and work many hours with no pay. We do it because we have a passion for the club.

Our chapter is always open to new members. We have no requirement for membership other than that you are a Good Sam member.
Have you attended Samborees in your state? It appears your state has one annual Samboree and the next one is scheduled Sept. 25 - 28, 2014 in Sedalia, MO. A state Samboree would be a good place to meet people, make friends, and possibly find a chapter that would fit your interests.

In spite of the 'Smile and Save' thread, it is actually "Swipe and Save". It is a discount available at Pilot/Flying J for Good Sam members on fuel and some other purchases.
