The Travelers
Explore Northern California with fellow RV enthusiasts. A friendly social group for San Francisco Bay Area and Central Valley RV owners.
Club History
The Los Viajaros RV Club was founded in 1960 by a group of San Jose, California IBM employees who enjoyed to camp. Los Viajaros in Spanish means The Travelers. The RV Club was established as the 1st California branch chapter of the National Campers and Hikers Association (NCHA) based in New York.
Today, the RV Club stands as a separate not-for-profit social organization dedicated to friendship, fellowship and the enrichment of the camping and RVing experience. We welcome all RV types.

Travelers arrived Sunday and Monday to beautiful towering pine trees of the Nevada County Fairgrounds. A few members, who will go nameless, tried to find an alternate route into the fairgrounds. But it didn’t work!
Warm weather didn’t stop members from enjoying local sights and fare: Empire Mine State Historic Park, California's oldest and longest single span coverage bridge, Grass Valley and Nevada City where the movie “Christmas Card '' was filmed. It’s amazing how such a large group converged on the bridge at the same time and took a great picture. Some found good food at Humpty Dumpty, Pete’s Pizza and Maria’s, while most licked an ice cream or two at Lazy Dog.
Continental breakfast was held inside the clubhouse/cottage, and potluck held on the deck overlooking the campground followed by fun rounds of LRC. The group ate well!
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!
Carol K. brought cake and ice cream to celebrate Andy’s birthday. Marilyn treated everyone with an ice cream cone on another evening. Brenda passed around her famous cookies at many of our evening circles. I want to personally thank them for the extra pound or two!
Thanks for all the fun,
Your host,
Boyd and Jill
Our camping year begins in March and goes through December, set by the Camping Director and Committe 12 to 18 months in advance. Normally, there's a travel time of 2 to 3 hours from the San Jose area, and we camp 3 to 4 nights. Many members add additional days or side trips before or after outing. While members are not required to attend every outing, we encourage fun and comradery.
We welcome the opportunity to enrich our RV club with NEW members. Not only are we a group of RV owners, we are The Travelers who enjoy a common social network of interest and friendship.
JOIN US in camp!
