In Late Fall 2011 Highways, Camping World and Good Sam Chairman and CEO Marcus Lemonis suggested combining the Good Sam Club and the President’s Club into a new and expanded Good Sam Club. Members would have one club, one card and one membership fee and would enjoy all the benefits of both clubs and more. Member response was instant and overwhelmingly positive, so the decision was made to combine the two clubs. Now ALL members can enjoy ALL the discounts and benefits offered by the Good Sam Club AND President’s Club for one low price. Details will be arriving in your mailbox and/or email inbox in the next few days.
In the meantime, here are some details:
Over 1 Million Members Strong!!
President’s Club no longer exists. The Camping World buyers club is now part of Good Sam Club as an added benefit to Good Sam Club members. All prior President’s Club members are now Good Sam Club members and they’ll be receiving a membership card in the next few days. This means the Good Sam Club is now over 1 million members strong, which allows the Club extra leverage when sourcing new benefits!
Pricing
The new membership fee will be the same price to join the Club or to renew your membership! A 1-year membership is $25. If you sign up for automatic renewal or join for a 3-year term the membership price is $20 per year. It’s the same when renewing your membership. $25 for a 1-year membership term. Or, if you sign up for automatic renewal or renew for a 3-year term the membership price is only $20 per year!
Good Sam Club Life Members
Good Sam Life members dues are paid for life and that hasn’t changed. Life members will not have any additional fees due to the new benefits added to the Good Sam Club. Life members will continue to receive Camping World club pricing now as part of the Good Sam Club benefits.
Benefits
You can always find the latest membership benefits when you sign in using your online Good Sam Club account and view the Member Benefits section. If you’re not registered online, registering is easy and only takes a few minutes. Just be sure to have your Good Sam member number handy.
Other Changes
In addition to receiving many new club benefits, you will continue to receive your subscription to Highways magazine as we know how much members value this subscription. There are five issues of Highways magazine planned for 2012! The tentative schedule has those issues arriving to members in the following months: February, April, June, August, and October. Because the schedule is subject to change, we’ll keep the latest schedule available to you at GoodSamClub.com/Highways.
And, new for 2012, as a supplement to Highways, an insert called Hi–Way Herald is being introduced to be distributed in a few of the Camping World flyers. They’ll be packed with even more chapter news and club events. So look for the New Hi-Way Herald insert in select Camping World flyers. Can’t wait to view the latest news about the club?
