Affinity Group Holding, Inc.
 PROFILE
Recreation is serious business for Affinity Group Holding, Inc. (AGHI). The direct marketing company sells goods and services through four clubs: Good Sam, Coast to Coast, and President's (which provide discounts for the RV crowd), and Golf Card (discounts for green fees). Nearly 2 million people pay membership fees ranging from $12 to $90 to join the clubs. AGHI also runs Camping World, a 29-store chain in 18 states, which sells RV products (refrigerators, sanitation products) not usually found in general merchandise stores. In addition, AGHI publishes about 30 magazines and travel guides, from which it derives subscription fees and ad sales revenue. Chairman Stephen Adams owns over 95% of the company.
