Something we should crow about!
Why is this web site necessary?
This writer has been RVing some 35 years, now in my 5th RV unit. Although the prestige factor of owning an RV has risen over the years, to many of the uninitiated, RVers still belong to a class of "gypsies and carnival workers." This perception is in contrast to the sports of hunting and fishing which have earned higher levels of public acceptance. Good for them! Now it is our turn. Our aim is to educate the public about the RV life in Louisiana and the benefits it brings to Louisiana as a whole, and to the Louisiana citizen in particular.
And this is important. A search of the Internet relative to RVing will return a vast array of web sites about the RV subject. Almost without exception, however, the results are more global in setting forth information. In the real world, we look for specific information more often than not. So, RVLouisiana is about RVing in Louisiana and only Louisiana.
And then there is the matter of unity among RVers. Who is appearing before the various governmental bodies that legislate RV matters to "pound desks" for the RV side? At the present time. No one. RVing is a wonderful social and outdoor activity and needs to stay that way. Yet, if the RV life in Louisiana is about to be eroded by some political process, we need to stand up and fight for our RV lifestyle. That means getting organized and staying organized.
RVLouisiana is an alliance, pure and simple. We wish not to disrupt any existing RV groups, clubs, and the like. Our mission is to act as a focal organizing force to promote and protect the RV lifestyle in Louisiana.
Will you help? Sign on as a booster. That way we can stay in touch with you.
