Hi folks, That Dam Rally is booking much faster than usual for the Rally at Willow Beach RV Park 1/ 3 Nov and pre rally at Lake Mead RV Park 30/31 Oct.
Speak to Cindy for the main Rally at Willow beach, area C, 9287674747
Speak to Lee for the PRE Rally at Lake Mead RV Village Row 8 overflow row 9, 7022932540
Only a couple of spots left in the C section of willow beach, tom...
I'll be there, if only to visit everyone, and have my wife kick some @$#.
Great Geoff, hurry with reservations if you want to stay at the main Rally at Willow Beach, if you only want the prerally at lake mead get row 8, lvmci...
Hi guys, That Dam Rally has had an amazing booking, but the Pre Dam Rally is still open. Make sure you try Cindy for cancellations from the non bus nuts at the main rally and talk to Lee at lake Mead RV park, about the pre rally, Van and I hope to see you at the PRE Rally, tom, lvmci...
Hi, That Dam PRE Rally is 30/31Oct at Lake Mead RV Village, the That Dam Rally is at Willow Beach RV park on the other side of the Dam on Lake Mojave 1/3 Nov, with a Convoy between the two Rally's. This will be the last Dam Rally.
Speak to Cindy for the main rally at Willow Beach area "C" 928-767-4747. Speak to Lee for the pre rally at Lake Mead RV village row 8/9 7022932540.
In April the rally at Willow Beach was filling up fast there may be cancellations, Lee told me there were still spaces at Lake Mead RV Park for the pre-rally. And there is the dry camping area next door that Clifford likes...
But park anywhere you can get a spot in either place, neither one is so big that you can't walk to the get-togethers, there's a campground with beautiful trees next door dry camping no hookups, tom, lvmci...
Just a heads up. Lee is no longer working at Lake Mead RV Village but by mentioning the "Dam Rally" a folder was quickly found and reservations completed. Jack

veggie plate
Chips
ice cream
For the main Rally for the Sat 02Nov evening potluck:

Tom, lvmci...
I can bring my appetite Tom ;D We'll thin o sumtin. ;)
Due to health issues, will not be attending the Willow Beach part of the Rally.
We may drive up for the potluck and say Hi. See how things are going on the day.
Space # C07 is the one we had.
Text me at 928-7one5-6655 or call 928-5six5-4608 to let me know you are interested so I can tell Cindy who wishes to take my spot before I release it. I have to give at least 24 hours notice to avoid a full price penalty.
Btw, is there going to be another event at Willow Beach or Lake Mead next year or is this the last one?
Wish I could be there, new owner still sorting out a backlog of items before I roll anywhere...
We will bring a vegetable salad (4 bean, artichokes,mushrooms, olives etc) Jack and Lorna Amundson
Matbrit
There will be a Willow Beach Halloween non rally and pre rally party next year Oct 26th to Nov 1, 2020 details will come later.

You got it......
Hi All, well it's going to be terribly cool to be at That Dam Rally and PRE Rally, as you can see, 69° is the high, Van is trying to find his Army Parka, I'm charging my electric jacket batteries, my electric gloves and electric underwear.! I should be toasty! About the only thing good about this Las Vegas style blizzard is the busses will keep their cool, dealing with those hills around that Hoover Dam. lvmci...

Yes we did we will be @ C-07, thanks Pete!
TomC
Have done a lot of electrcal work in the last few weeks, but no work on the engine. I am going to try to make it up there for a few days in my truck. See you guys there.
Matt
Great Matt! Great that Peter is coming too! Any one that wants to stop by, you'll be more than welcome. Come one, come all and bring a casserole! Come to the PRE Rally at Lake Mead RV Village or Main Rally at Willow Beach RV Park. There's a nice hotel casino, Hoover Dam Lodge quite near to the Dam. Tom, lvmci...
And. . .
Thanks to a change in my schedule, plus a couple of cancellations, I, too, will be attending both rallies!
Happy camper here!
;)
Van
Next year there will be a Willow Beach Halloween NRG the last week in October. Make your reservations soon section B C & D are reserved for us. Talk to Cindy. More details will come later this year.
ED
Might be settin' on the beach in Pensacola Fla. next year Ed ;D lol!
Hi All, the big Horn sheep are dining Al fresco at hemenway park, overlooking that Dam Pre Rally, that we hope to also enjoy dining out doors, lvmci..
Start the party we will be rolling in around 3 pm if I can find enough cans to sell ;D for fuel
Clifford, I'll bring a hose for you to siphon some out of everybody's tank!...tom...
The weather is going to be crappie a low of 33 for 2 days I don't know if Sonja can handle that ? she get real cold easy
We had our fence line go down in the winds last night :o. Be nice if you guys can make it, no need for Sonja to be out in the cold, keep her warm in the coach.
Warms up to the 70°s, I'll be happy to visit Sonja in your bus, tom...
Sorry, that is not a coach, just a fancy s&s or sticks, screws and glue.😉

What is your definition of a coach John I passed on 3 Prevost to settle on this one lol and drove 1500 miles to pick it up ,solid cherry wood not a piece of laminate or particle board to be found
Cliff, did you get that at Premier?
Very nice though. That solid real wood does up the weight. My 4905 is mostly solid oak, which makes it some hefty too.
2019 the That Dam PRE Rally, had a wonderful potluck, great food and conversations, two young girls from Germany in a "B" class, joined us for dinner and had great stories, lvmci... :-*
Looks like someone brought their house trailer.

Boy you always have something to squeak about don't you? And give Clifford a break, that man deserves to drive what ever the f--k he wants to. Tough $#!% if it doesn't suit you. Now get back to pumpin' your post numbers! >:( >:(
That Dam Rally, has a lot of space between the coaches. 72° is very pleasant, lvmci...
That Dam Rally Finale
Van, SIMMER DOWN! Take another look at that picture clear at the back.
I'm happy for Cliff and Sonja. He spends too much time fixing everyone elses equipment. Hopefully they will get to enjoy their life in comfort for a change without any issues.
Some visitors out my window at That Dam Rally, lvmci...
So where is the picture of the new Country Coach?
NICE PHOTOS!
Well, That Dam Rally is finito. Good turnout, great weather, of those attending, only one engine problem. Matt came by in his unusual Pinzgauer, because his 4-71 was out of commission. Here are some pictures of who came to the PRE Rally, lvmci...

Mark it is a 2007 Magna 630 the Rembrandt with a 600 hp ISX Cummins I will get you some photos or stop by on your south and I will give you a tour
Here's another group, lvmci...
Thanks to every one that attended, for a great 7 year Run of That Dam Rally. Van and I enjoyed bring it to all those bus nuts, lvmci...
Who are the two teenagers in the middle picture. Nice to see them relaxing. :)
Yes they looked happy in their new country coach, beautiful wood work. I think Gary took pictures, lvmci...
How come this was the last rally? Too hard to organize?
Hi Brian, bus nuts are fun to be with!
Some wanted changes, others liked it the way it was.
Most pitched in to help, some pushed harder than others.
There are a lot of elements to a rally.
It's time to end That Dam Rally.
Van and I brought our version of a NRG out west, established it as an alternative to a formal rally. And had a 7 year run, that's good enough for me, lvmci...
The very first Dam Rally,
And the last That Dam Rally!
Cliff now that you have wheels I want you to come up and stay at my campground at Mt. St. Helens this summer. You guys
would really enjoy it. I'll spoil you. Sold the Vogue, probably won't make it down this winter.
Tom and Van, we'd like to say thanks to you both for bringing the NRG Dam rally to Lake Mead for us all to enjoy. Although we missed the first NRG rally I think I saw my bus in the picture of the first dam rally.
Thanks again, it was a fun run! Jack
Thanks Jack and your beautiful wife Lorna, tom...

Jack it's always a pleasure to share a camp ground with you and Lorna. Sorry you didn't make it to Willow I rode down with a big box full of BUBBA burgers just for you ;) and heard about you'all needing to skidaddle back home, hope all is well.
Note the Lake mead deal is not over at least for Cheryl and I. We have always gone down there on Veterans day weekend since 2008 and that tradition will continue. So as it was before the Dam Non Rally even started we will be there next year if anyone is in the area, come on down and join us!
Safe travels.
Van.
Thanks Van. I can't think of a better place to spend Veterans day. We'll keep it open for next year. Jack
Boomer from reading your signature - we're wondering what's next for you!? :)
