About NCT:
National Camping Travelers, Inc., (NCT) was founded in 1966 at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, by the late Brother Myron Fox and twenty-one other Masonic families with the idea that a
CAMPING CLUB FOR MASTER MASONS AND THEIR FAMILIES would be an added opportunity for fraternal fund and fellowship.  Brother Fox's idea has since spread to most of the continental United States and Canada.

The only requirement to join NCT is you must be a MASTER MASON in good standing in a Lodge of which its Grand Lodge is recognized by the other Grand Lodges of the United States of America, Canadian Provinces and Mexico.

ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP DUES are $25.00 for one family unit consisting of the husband, wife and all children to the age of twenty-one.  The new member initiation fee is $10.00.  Dues are also paid to the Chapter or if a member-at-large, the annual at-large fee is an additional $10.00.  (National dues are Pro-Rated to $12.50 for new members who join between January 1 to
June 30.)

The Basic Unit of NCT is the Chapter.  Each Chapter is led by a Master of Travel, (MOT) Wagonmaster, Secretary-Treasurer, Chaplain, Safety Director and the Chapter Trustees.  Between the Chapter Officers and the National Officers, there are, in many cases, a State or Provincial Director and a District Director. A District is usually composed of about four (4) States and/or Provinces.

The Chapters schedule a MONTHLY CAMPOUT, weather permitting for their part of the country, and dinner meetings or "camp-ins" when the weather is not favorable for camping.  During the winter months, the sunbelt Chapters are very active.  Many of our members are "Snowbirds" and go South and West where the climates are warmer to participate in campouts.  When Spring blossoms, most of our campers pull our their RV's and hit the roads again.

For members with young children, there is the YNCT (Youth of National Camping Travelers).  They have their own elected Officers and have an enjoyable time at all the scheduled Campouts and Rallies.
