RVers Helping RVers

Earlier this month, we posed a question via our Escapees RV Club Facebook page, asking for members to share what thoughtful things other RVers have done for them. The responses were so heartwarming, we want to share a few of them with you!

Georgia shared about how she fractured her wrist while at an Xscapers event in Mexico. " A wonderful family drove me back to Jojoba SKP Park in So. Cal. They stayed a few days and we had a great time with their two boys. "

Debbie told us about helpful members of Chapter 25, who often gave her rides and assisted with running errands when she didn't have a towed vehicle.

Having two sets of eyes and hands can make RV maintenance so much easier. Robert commented with "I was preparing to perform regular maintenance on my Cummins Quiet Genset. A neighboring RVer came over and did all the laying on your back steps to change the oil and filter, change the fuel filter, and air filter. It's so much more effort to get up and down on the ground and crawling under my diesel pusher is less fun than that."

In addition to heartwarming stories like these, we know plenty of you are out there doing good in the communities you visit, too! From trash pick-up events on public lands to giving back to Escapees CARE (like the photo above) to holding fundraisers and donation drives for animal shelters, community centers, children's homes, and more, SKPs take pride in leaving places better than we find them! ❤️
Recognize SKPs Helping SKPs!
Has a fellow RVer and Escapees member done something kind for you? Nominate them for the Peterson Spirit Award!

Escapees RV Club was founded in 1978 in order to connect RVers and offer a structure for befriending, supporting, and helping each other through the unique struggles that are part and parcel of the RV lifestyle. Building and strengthening community has remained our primary focus throughout our decades of service to RVers. Over time, this mentality gave birth to an often-used phrase among our membership, “caring and sharing.”

We adopted this as a core value of Escapees RV Club as a testament to the passion our members share, both for the RVing lifestyle and for supporting each other. And the Peterson Spirit Award was created to be a prestigious honor granted to Escapees members who demonstrate our core value by going over and above the expectations of others in order to support a fellow RVer in need.

From the Community

Mobility impairment is one of life’s biggest game-changers. If it happens to you, rest assured that RVing with disabilities is achievable and enjoyable. These tenacious Escapees have done it for years, and will show you how to feed the explorer in your heart to live your RV dreams.
 

Transitioning from a sticks and bricks house to a rolling home can be tough, especially for kids. We’re thankful a couple of RVing kids took the time to share their perspective on this unique lifestyle!
