quartzsite rally info

Cody, The three groups that strated this combined rally are FMCA clubs. The main purpose of the Quartzsite rally has always been to have our FMCA required annual meeting. We have always had our seperate rallies at the same time. Two years ago the Eagles club was asked  since we where there anyway why not have a combined rally. We agreed and thus the combined rally. With that big of a rally the word gets out and people want to come to it. We do not want to exclude anyone but we have to focus on the purpose of the rally. I hope this helps out with your concerns.

Thank You Wayne

I guess it all depends on the purpose of the rally, I've been an FMCA member for many years, dating back to I think the late 70's and like what was mentioned the by-laws state that any FMCA member is welcome at any FMCA rally, so the generous gesture is kind of a moot issue, I've never been to a rally yet where the annual meeting was a problem but I think now I have a better understanding of the intention of the rally.

Shoot let's just have a rally and not worry about all that other stuff!

Our rally is an annual meeting. (Sorta, since we only have one annually or every 2 yrs! )

Oh yeah and I'm a busnut who still don't have a bus!

Cody, You are correct about the FMCA members and Larry made that clear. It is the non FMCA members that will not be turned away.
BK, I agree the bigger these things get the more problems we have. When it was just our Eagle rally the biggest problem we had is who was going to bring the firewood, and who had the plastic Eagle to hang on the non Eagle that joined us.

Thank You Wayne

It's nice that you've chosen to not turn away the busnuts that haven't joined FMCA yet, makes for a much nicer group when everyone has the same credentials I guess.

Cody, most of this stems from bad information I have been all over Wayne's a** about this till I finally got it straight in my pea brain.

good luck

I just can't help thinking back to a rally years ago with the revconeers, i had been to several rallys and knew many of them there, but one year I broke the lower A-Frame and was waiting on parts and decided to go anyway in my car, I was turned away by people that I knew and they knew me, I never went back.  Was a real learning experience for me.

I have not been to a rally yet or one that is sponsored by a governing body for that matter. So if I understand this correctly is the FMCA comprised of different sub categories based on bus manufacture? And what is the focus of the Rally? Not being facetious.
Just curious.

FMCA is for all engine powered RV's but just about all brands of buses or motorhomes have different chapters by name or brand.
FMCA have their own rallies several times a year across the US for vendors and manufactures to show the new items for sale you need to attend one in your area you can attend with out being a member of FMCA.   
Our Eagle rallies are very informal and laid back with the exception of the annual meeting in Jan then we take care of the club business


good luck
