KOA (Kampgrounds of America) has membership program that gives you 10% discount on camping.
Good Sam club gets you discounts on campgrounds and at Camping World stores.
There are some others, but I'm not familiar with them.

Passport America is a great program, IF you can camp weekdays and non-holidays.

Good afternoon and welcome to the site from SW Idaho.
Some camp grounds offer discounts for former service members, ask when you call.

The Forest River Owners Group is the only club/group you need. 😋
Welcome from NC.
My favorite apps (Android):
RV Parky
Waze for navigation.
TV Antenna Helper if your one of us who still has to dial in the antenna direction.
Noonee for local radio stations.
And, of course, the FROG Forum App.

Welcome to the forum,
We to just got started last year ourselves here in the Carolina's. Forest River Forums provided us with the information to just about everything needed to learning and understanding what worked in the RV world to get the most out of camping and traveling around this great nation we love and live in. Google was used as well. But give three quarters credit to FRF.
Have fun building lots of memories with family and friends while traveling. Stay safe and Happy RVing from Farmer NC
