Cincinnati,
OH – September 2024 / NewsmakerAlert: To better reflect its mission
of welcoming and supporting owners of all types of RVs, Family
Motor Coach Association (FMCA) soon will begin doing business as Family
RV Association. This decision came from the FMCA Governing Board during
its annual meeting on August 14, 2024. The association is in the process
of developing a new logo to accompany the revised name, as well as a timeline
for the rollout of the new brand.

The
new name retains the word “Family,” something that has been at the heart
of the association since its founding in 1963 and has been part of the
“Your RVing Family” tagline the organization has used for several years.
For association members, “Family” goes beyond the conventional sense of
the word and extends to the entire community of RV owners. Many members
develop close bonds with their fellow members — another type of “family”
— turning strangers into lifelong friends and travel companions. The new
name also incorporates “RV,” to clarify the organization’s focus as an
RV travel and lifestyle community.
“We
are excited to begin a new adventure as Family RV Association,” FMCA national
president Gary Milner said. “For 60-plus years, FMCA — now Family RV
Association — has been helping RVers to form incredible connections with
fellow RV travelers. We want to make sure all RV owners are aware of the
wonderful opportunities and benefits membership brings. Adopting a name
that better describes our community makes perfect sense.”
