I've seen a lot of interest in the forum regarding starting, maintaining or folks looking for a camping group. We're going to experiment with a "sticky" at the top of the forum so that people are more able to communicate about this.Don

This is a great idea.I am the president of a camping group in Maryland. We cover a wide geography from the west to central MD to Southern MD. We are always looking for fun people to come and join the group. We are the MD Road Runners, a Good Sam Chapter.We have families with small children, grown children and no children. Working stiffs and retirees. It's wonderful to have a mixture of people to camp with and camping in a group is always more fun.Before we formed this group we always watched the groups of campers with envy. The pot luck meals, the nights by the fire telling stories. We have always enjoyed camping as a family but now we have other families with similar interests to share this with and we've become very close.Once a month we camp together based on a schedule that is set early in the camping season. This allows us plenty of alone family time and lots of group camping time when we're able to join.Feel free to e mail me directly if you are in the MD area and would like to learn more about the MD Road Runners.

Our group is the North Texas Camping Association. We are a family oriented group who camp around a 100 mile radius of the Dallas-Ft Worth metroplex. Check out our site at www.ntxca.com!! :B

Timmy, Hanneman, and WeimLady,

Okay, this makes four families...let's get it started! We live in Weston, MO just outside of KC. We will meet up with everyone anywhere within 2-3 hour drive. With the weather as nice as it has been, I have been begging my husband to "de-winterize" the rv and go camping for a weekend! I'm sure as soon as we do that, the 10 degree nights will set in again!

We have a 12 year old daughter who would love to have somebody to camp with. It's always more fun when you have others around the campfire. I like the way soaravenal is camping up there in CA! Is that a movie on a projector?

We may be interested in this too if the dates all work out--seems like things are busy ALREADY for the summer!
