Arkansas RV Parks (Arkansas Association of RV Parks & Campgrounds)
Arkansas RV Parks is a membership program for private campground and RV park owners in Arkansas. Members pay an annual fee and get group purchasing rates and state-level marketing, rather than negotiating advertising or vendor contracts park by park.
On the cost side, membership carries bulk pricing on music licensing, Constant Contact email marketing, and retailers including ACE Hardware and Staples. On the promotion side, each member park appears on an Arkansas-focused rack card displayed at RV shows around the country, including Tampa and Hershey, gets a listing on a website devoted to Arkansas campgrounds, and is promoted through Google ads and other digital channels.
The site advertises a first-year rate of $149 to join. It also promotes the Campground Owners Expo, a national trade show for park owners held in Branson, Missouri, December 2 to 5, 2026 at the Hilton Branson Convention Center, with nearly 50 education sessions over three and a half days, a full expo hall of suppliers, a kickoff breakfast and welcome reception included with registration, and attendees from more than 33 states and Canada.
The crawled site is a membership sign-up page. It does not describe legislative advocacy, a printed camping guide, group insurance, or an Arkansas-specific annual conference. Owners should ask the association directly what dues cover after the first year and whether those programs exist.
