We are a Good Sam chapter called SPARTAN SAMS from the great lands of SOUTHERN ILLINOIS. (Originating many years ago in Sparta, Il.). Yes, people do live in the southern part of the state and we have some great times at our campouts... Eating, sightseeing, playing cards, games, eating, donating to local charities, and just sitting around a good old campfire telling stories and eating. Our planned camping dates are arranged six times a year....mostly the first weekend of the months of May through October. We love finding new members. All our members are encouraged to participate in planning where to camp. Finding new and exciting campgrounds is fun when we do it together. There are many combined years of camping experience amongst us as well as a wide variety of camping units. Come try us out this season or next ! We don't care where you live or what kind of rig you have...you are welcome in this club. Bring your stories to one of our campfires!
