Escapees September-October 2024

Escapees RV Club provides a wonderful opportunity for RV owners to connect with like-mind ed individuals and build meaningful social connections. By partici pating in Escapees events and gatherings, members can combat feelings of isolation and loneliness that can sometimes arise from the RV lifestyle or aging. Engaging with the Escapees community allows members to share experi ences, exchange advice and form lasting friendships. T hrough the Escapees RV Club, members can cultivate a sense of belonging and community that enhances their overall quality of life. To further reward members for this connectivity and social activity, Escapees has recently entered into a partnership with Grouper, a social fi tness movement that encourages healthy living through meaningful social connections and shared experiences. Grouper helps cover member ship dues for eligible members over 65 and keeps rewarding them for staying active all year long! What is Grouper? Grouper partners with health plans that offer their members activity bene fi ts. As you stay socially active and participate in qualifying in-person activities with your group, they work with your Medicare Advantage or Medicare Supplement plan to support the cost of your membership dues and make other bene fi ts available to you that are related to your social activity. What’s the Catch? There is no catch! Grouper recognizes what medical and social research has now well documented: building and maintaining social connections become more dif fi cult as we age. Grouper believes that activities with others is an important part of the solution, and is committed to bringing people together and rewarding activity.
