Articles of Incorporation, Circa 1966

Since our inception, our core purpose has been to serve our members. “Camping facilities and Campgrounds” are explicitly mentioned as the organization’s core membership in its guiding legal documents—the Articles of Incorporation — established in 1966. A lot has changed in 60 years, but one thing that hasn’t is the core membership we serve. It’s simply expanded.
