South Florida Chapters
Florida Crackers
DESCRIPTION
We are a friendly group of folks (both couples and singles) who enjoys getting together for fellowship, laughter, and activities at or near campgrounds within an approximate 150-mile radius of Central Florida. We have a wonderful wagonmaster who is exceptional at finding us great deals. We enjoy checking out nearby entertainment and activities, playing various games, and gathering for happy hours and meal times. A crowd favorite is often our kangaroo race originated since many of our members were current or former Bounder owners. Several breakfasts and evening meals are typically included in our reasonable rally prices. Our rallies run Monday through Friday once a month from November through April. Our members live in many counties predominantly across the center of Florida so you might even find a familiar face among us. We encourage you to see if we’re a good fit for you.

Florida Roll'n Gators
Florida Sun Coasters
DESCRIPTION
The Florida Sun Coasters currently has approximately 70 members who live in Central, Southeast and Southwest Florida. We hold nine rallies each year, from September through May in those various areas. We accept all types of FMCA-Approved Recreational Vehicles and only seek those who want to have fun and enjoy the comradeship of our chapter. We enjoy our smaller size, which is currently capped at forty single/family units, as we do not want to lose the feeling of having an extended family. We eat out, we cook and seek fun activities. Our official rallies are Friday night through Sunday breakfast, but many arrive Thursday and leave Monday if they are not working. Prospective members are welcome to attend a rally as our guest for the rally fee, and only pay campground fees to check us out.

Sand Dollars
DESCRIPTION
The Sand Dollars is a group of diverse background RVers who enjoy traveling mainly within Florida to be exposed to many and enjoy various locations and attractions – often away from their home area. Members share in being hosts and co-hosts for monthly 3-4 day rallies during the months of October thru April. By sharing in the planning and hosting rallies, we have experienced state parks and 5- Star private parks as well as dry camping on members’ properties. We have visited small, quaint, country towns as well as enjoying activities in larger cities. In recent years we have attended concerts, jazz festivals, steeplechase races, museums, wildlife parks and much more. We don’t have rules for what is expected at our rallies – some hosts like to prepare meals, some like to have catering, others prefer restaurants, and some do a little of each. Evening games may include cards, dominos, charades, or original games – or you can just relax or turn in early at your coach. If you enjoy a variety of personalities, RVing experiences, and rally activities, we invite you to be a guest at one of our rallies and get to know us better. If there is a fit, we look forward to having you join us as a member of our chapter.
