Holiday weekend camping
We are so new to this but I was surprised how many camp grounds are filled up already for memorial weekend how early are people booking in advance

Not just the weekend. For many public parks with a 14-day stay limit, folks will book the 14 days with the weekend they want at the end of that period, blocking availability for a couple of weeks on a site they'll occupy for 3-4 days.
Having that weekend for them is worth paying $150-200 to hold a camp site they are not using. They even do this for unreservable sites, come out a couple weeks ahead, pay for the two weeks, put up a play tent to "occupy" the site until they are ready to come use it.
If you want to go RVing on holiday weekends, you'll need to learn how the game is played in your area.
I knew this was a fellow Okie when I read it. lol
This is what we do at Thunderbird, it's only 7-8 miles from my house.
Last year when we were at Branson, we went ahead and booked Memorial Day weekend & Labor Day weekend for this year.
