You can organize a chapter which is mostly for a specific brand but if someone with another brand and wants to join we would ask that you allow them to join your chapter. I am the one answered your question at the Lazyday Rally. I know it appears that one of the chapters is for Revolutions only, but that is not the case. If someone with another brand want to join the chapter they may do so. We can supply you the information on forming a chapter to include a draft of by-laws. The only thing we ask is that your by-laws do not vialote FMA by-laws. Please let me know if I can be of futher help.

I apologize that I did not explain futher about organizing a chapter.

Sam Whitaker, President, FMA

"Will there be chapters for specific Fleetwood brands?" 

The answer from the FMA President (don't remember who it was at the time) was a very emphatic and loud, "NO".  He explained that one of the goals of the organization was to bring Fleetwood owners together, not to separate them.

So far there are only 3 FMA chapters and one of these chapters requires ownership of a specific brand of Fleetwood RV.  This requirement is in their chapter bylaws and on their membership application form.  I was just curious as to whether or not I had misunderstood the answer to my question in Florida?  If a chapter can be organized for a specific Fleetwood brand then I might be interested in helping to organize one for Discovery owners.

Would like to find out if there is any interest in forming a chapter in the western USA? I live in Reno and would like to see more events for the west or be part of a new chapter for this area?

Thanks
