Hey guys,
This rally is indeed a joint rally! Last year we only included the Eagles, Flxs, and Gms, but we had
a few MCIs, a couple of Prevosts, and several motor homes that came in. Since that time we have had
requests from other clubs and individuals that would like to come, so we opened it up to all converted coaches. We will also have an adjoining parking area for other RVs that are friends or guests that will be
welcome to join in the rally. There will be no additional parking fee for toads, but it will be up to the
property owner as to outsiders parking. I will try to get that clarified.

Can Sticks and Staples come? Or only converted coaches?

God bless,

Larry, thanks for the update now "whats for dinner" lol in the back of my mind a cater in Quartzsite stands out for some reason.
Hope it not corn dogs or the world famous fired Twinkies just joking the fried Twinkies are better than they sound but once was enough for me.

John, This is primarily a bus rally, but if you are a FMCA member, according to their by-laws you are
welcome at any FMCA rally. We are going to have an adjacent parking area for non-buses, but you are
welcome to participate in the rally. Larry

The dinner menu is going to be flank steak and chicken with hot potato salad, coleslaw, and baked beans.
Our caterer is a member of the GEMs from Castro Valley, California. We recently had a rally up there, and
believe me, they know how to do it right!

The Thursday night meet and greet will be pot-luck of heavy hor-de-ourvers. Unbelievable what these
gals can cook up! Maybe even fried twinkies.

Larry;

How fine are you going to split that hair. My coach is a country coach on a Gillig bus chassis.

Will you let me in with the big boys. Please

Don

Don, Wes Sturgis has a coach like yours now Larry may have a little problem with him and Jefferson parking somewhere other than with the buses Wes or Jerry don't hear real good so maybe you could use the hearing thing also. LOL

That looks like Rice Ranch.  Great place to stay.  A few years ago
it was taken over by a large RV dealer.  Maybe since the economy
went bad they let their lease go.  I have been there many times.

Merle it is Rice Ranch straight across the highway from the Gambler's RV Surplus.

I'm really having a problem with the term "outsiders".   Maybe I'm reading too much into it but I guess I've never been to a rally that seems to exclude so many people and yet gives the impression that suddenly due to a suddenly generous gesture "others" may also be included. I saw that years ago with the Revconeers and I really didn't like it then either, like I say, maybe I'm reading too much into it but it just sounds kind of strange.  I guess I'm used to rallys like jacks where everyone is welcome regardless of what you drive or don't drive.

I can appreciate that, too much emphasis on this and that, always seems to muck it all up in the end.  Isn't the purpose of a rally to meet new folks "who appreciate or share much of the same interests?"  You don't have to have a bus, to be a bus nut.  I was without a bus for almost thirty six years before I got mine, but that did not make me any less of a bus nut.
