We are Escapee’s

All it takes is a plan and pig headed Yankees determination.  Not too much different from our Forefathers leaving Europe with a couple of trunks or less. 

Escapee’s home park in Livingston, TX (About 14 in the system) is it’s largest.  It has about 300 spots from tents to 1/2 acre owner occupied homes.  Simple, Clean, Friendly, Accommodating combined with good dollar value is their goal and they fill it well.  We are about 5 miles from town which has all the services we need.

 

 These sites are typical of those when are making a short stay of usually 1 to 4 weeks.  Cost is about $20/nite + Electric which is metered.

 

 

This building houses the mail forwarding service we use.  It is a major source of income, the service is friendly and as efficient as the USP allows it to be.  Our land mail is often 3 weeks in transit, may as well put it in a bottle at sea!

 Escapees Care is a service to those who have lost their ability to live & thrive on the road due to age or disability.  These folks park their RV in long term site adjacent to a modern facility which serves them with basic support services; 3 meals/day,  24 hour on call volunteer help, basic travel need for in town visits, ECT.

The CARE ‘Club House’ is about 10,000 sq ft.  It has Industrial kitchen, large Dinning Room, Comfortable Day Rooms and administrative offices.  While we were there it was filling the needs of about 40 folks {Usually with their spouses}.

 

  This shows a 1/4 section of the day room.  There is also a card/game playing area and a sewing area.  There are about 20 Volunteers and 5 paid staff.
