RV Community: Building Connections on the Road
In this blog post, our team at Rjourney will explore how RVers can connect with fellow travelers and foster meaningful relationships on the road.
From weekend getaways to long-term camping, RV travel can be an extremely rewarding experience. However, it’s more enjoyable if you share the fun with a group of friends or like-minded RVers. With a little effort and motivation, you can find people who share the same RV enthusiasm as you without having to steer too far off course. Let our team at Rjourney show you how you can connect with fellow RVers and build relationships on the road.
1. Online Forums for RVers
When it comes to finding fellow RVers, nothing beats the convenience of the online world. There are countless online forums you can join to find fellow RVers and talk about your past, current, and future excursions. For example, there are plenty of communities on websites such as iRV2 and FMCA.
Social Media for RV Travelers
Another way to connect with other RVers is through social media. From Facebook to Instagram and beyond, you can find countless RV content on topics, including destination guides and tips on RV camping. However, if you don’t see the content you want, try posting yourself! An active online presence betters your odds of meeting similarly interested RV enthusiasts. Here are some social media tips to help you get your account off the ground:
- Post consistently
- Engage with your audience
- Use visual content
- Collaborate with fellow RVers
Make sure you choose a platform that best fits the kind of content and audience you’re searching for. Younger audiences with visual content benefit more from Instagram and TikTok, while older crowds are more likely to use Facebook.
3. Joining RV Clubs
Whether you plan to camp near home or go out into unfamiliar territory, it’s best to find an RV club to lean back on for advice and companionship. One community to look into is the Escapees RV Club, which has been a top social network for RVers since 1978. You can find other RV rallies and events near you through websites like Meetup.
4. Partaking in Campground Activities
While the online world can open you up to more people at a faster rate, nothing beats the connections made with in-person campground events and activities. Some of these events could be hosted by the campground itself. Many others are hosted by locals or fellow campers looking for an excuse to get outdoors.
Host Your Own RV Community Event
Are you not finding the kind of event that suits your fancy? Then, host your own event at your favorite campground. These events can range from barbecues and ice cream socials to watch parties for your favorite sports team. By bringing people together to an RV campground, you can better maintain friendships and build relationships not found anywhere else.
