Us Club History


The Us Club was formed in June 1985 at Honeybrook, Pennsylvania Campground Several motorhome owners, including Maurel & Joyce Allen, Perry & Katie Garrett, Walter & Virginia Lancaster, Frank & Beverly Reid and Bert & Florence Williams decided to form a "club" dedicated to togetherness in motorhome travel, exchange of ideas, and family fun.  At that time, no official name was decided upon, however, the group began to refer to themselves as "Us," as in "just Us" and the name "Us" took hold.

The first rally was held in September 1985 at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania Campground with 26 motorhomes in attendance.  More than 150 rallies have been held since that first one in September of 1985, and the Us Club has grown in numbers from 26 to the present number of over 100.  At one time the Club had two "Area Representatives," Bert Williams for New Jersey and Pennsylvania;  Kermit White for Virginia and North Carolina.  Membership included well over a hundred families.  Many lasting friendships have been made during the life of the Us Club.  We've watched as the children of some member families grew to adulthood. Sadly, a number of our early members, who were very active in Club activities, have since passed away.
