A "member" is a co-owner of a limited-liability company. You're not going to get much real data because they aren't a public stock company and thus don't have to report it publicly.

Aha! Thanks, Bruce. I did not know that term, but it agrees with what we know. Bob and Cleo used their own money to buy the company and reorganize it as Trail Manor Manufacturing. According to Cleo, probably a year ago, they are looking for an investor. According to several members here, the company is still operating, though apparently not yet thriving.
I also note that Cleo has posted articles in most of the Trailblazers' newsletters, which acknowledge the difficulties of moving to Nebraska but remain upbeat about the current state of the company and its operations. Though we haven't heard anything specific, I remain optimistic about TM's future. This is especially true as the state of the economy in general, and the RV industry in particular, are finally recovering from the slump.

Has anyone found the Trailmanor facility on Google maps? Locating that address shows a facility called "Hydraulic Components, Inc." Is that the Trailmanor plant?

Google maps link.
I just looked for something that matched the photo on their web site. From Trailmanor's photo, they probably occupy less than the entire building. Google's photographic data is probably from before they occupied it, there's a sign in front that I can't read but looks like a property available sign.

Good job, Bruce. That's gotta be it.

I'm encouraged
Talked to Bob today, production is slowly getting going and my build should be done in about 30 more days.

I was there this summer in Nebraska.
Had a tune up done and a few repairs....
The new owners are in Ne. Which was the reason for moving the production up there. (As i understood it)
