justRich Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 $29.95 membership sale at the Escapees RV Club booth in the big tent at Quartzsite. Saw it while shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk W Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Very interesting, indeed! I just visited the "Join Us!" webpage and found that not only are new memberships shown for $37.95, but much to my surprise they also offer a life membership again! I was not aware that the Life Member was once more available since the last, limited offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retiredin1993 Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 Kirk, the Lifetime membership is for new members only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfrank Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 It also takes over 21 years to break even over the current annual cost, looks to be aimed at xcapers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Greg Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 I think many lifetime members look at the cost as supporting Escapees club as much as possibility of saving themselves money long term. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garyking Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Interesting news Rich Thanks for sharing. I will pass this message to my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk W Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 I must be blind as a bat...what do you get when you join the club? There are 19 RV parks that are part of the Escapee system, an outstanding magazine, access to the worlds best RV mail services, access to "stoppin spots" the members who let members park on their property, access to a free jobs bulletin board, discounted stays in associated RV parks, discounts from both commercial members and endorsed businesses, and a long list of things best found in the link which Big Greg posted in #7. But even most important is the family you become a part of when you join the club. The people of the club are the greatest benefit of all! Interesting news Rich Thanks for sharing. I will pass this message to my friend. Welcome to the Escapee forums! If you are near Quartzsite it might just pay off for you to go in and join us!

StarDreamers.us Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Is the Escapee Organization in money trouble? Only wondering? Since it is a private company?? Safe Travels! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigjim Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 They just do this every so often. It doesn't necessarily mean anything. I can remember when I thought the same thing quite a few years ago and the same discussion took place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandsys Posted January 30, 2017 Report Share Posted January 30, 2017 Is the Escapee Organization in money trouble? Only wondering? Since it is a private company?? I doubt it. They are actively expanding into a younger market which I see as a good move to keep the company going a long time into the future. Many of the newer members are from the same demographic the originators of this service were when they started. That's a good thing.
