  5. The Support of 1,000,000 fellow RVers
    • The Good Sam Club was founded in 1966 and began with a simple smiling face bumper sticker.
    • When RVers met at gas stations, roadside restaurants, or campgrounds, they eagerly swapped information, gave advice, offered tips on what to see, and what to do. Most important of all they stopped immediately if they saw another RVer with a breakdown.
    • Early on, Trailer-R-News, then the top magazine in RVing, offered a free bumper sticker to anyone willing to lend a helping hand or give advice to other traveler.
    • Since biblical times that sort of person has been known as a "Good Samaritan." That's how we got our name. We were a bunch of Good Sams. And you know what? Nothing has changed since that simple bumper sticker.
    • The Good Sam Club is still about helping each other. That's been our purpose since day one. But now, with 1,000,000 members, we can give you so much help it's amazing. Today we are the most trusted resource in the world of RVing.
