Upstate SC Rally, October 12 to 14th - MAYBE NOT

[kyle4501]

I JUST RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE PRESIDENT OF PALMETTO COVE.

IT SEEMS THERE ARE COME CHARTER MEMBERS OF THE PARK THAT STILL DON'T LIKE NON-AIRSTREAMS IN THEIR PARK. IT IS THOSE FEW THAT ARE MAKING A FUSS ABOUT INCOMPLETE COACHES NOT IN KEEPING WITH THE THEME OF THE PARK. THEY ARE HAVING A DOARD OF DIRECTORS MEETING & OUR USE OF THE PARK WILL BE ONE OF THE TOPICS DISCUSSED. MORE LATER


I'm waiting to hear back from Palmetto Cove concerning availability & etc. But October 12th  to 14th is looking like our best shot at the moment.

To have more clout in the discussions, I need an idea of how many will be there.

So Please SPEAK UP !

After I get some idea of how many will be there, I can finalize plans & develop a registration form.

Preliminary ideas:
- Pot luck dinners?
- One pot group dinner - beef stew, chicken & dumplings, grilled meat, etc. with pot luck sides?
- Smores, of course!
- Lots of talking B.S. (Bus Stuff, what were you thinking?  )

Any other good ideas?

Let me know,
Thanks,
Kyle

Thanks Gary & Sam! 

I just heard from the Cove. Oct 12 to 14th is OK, but we won't be able to use the dining hall or shelter at night  . The shelter is usually for everyone to share during the day.

Jon Morris has graciously offered to bring a large tent (think circus big top ) for us to use if necessary.

We can reserve the buildings for next years rally if we have enough show up. 

This rally is taking place, so I'll be working on a registration form to post here.
Thanks!

[Gary LaBombard]

The tent is a great idea, thanks Jon for the offer and we will be more comfortable with it.  looks like just the registration, and showing up is the issues we now have.  I will do more on the food prep this time Kyle, I never cooked anything buy ravaoli and beeferoni's 27 years ago when I got divorced but will do my best to contribute more this time.  We all have to probably need to help just a little more so Kyle and family can also enjoy mingling with our group.  Having the ten behind our buses will be cool, we can meander in and out anytime and not bother the other S&S campers lol. 

Your're doing great Kyle, Jack will be proud of you also in two more years as you grow.

Hi Kyle,
Put us down too!  That weekend is "malleable"..I can cancel our previous plans.   Be Friday afternoon before we arrive...T  cannot get out of work.  Anyway, someone's gotta pay for the fuel! 
I may have overlooked something, but where is the CG?   
You oughta be able to get Bob n Jackie down there...not too far from them? Unless they've fired back to Cliff's place for the winter.

Cheers, JR and Terri

[NJT5047]

Ummm....found the link to the campground.  Very nice.
I'll check with Anita and John and see if they are available.  They are gonna owe me after the middle of September...time to collect!
See ya'll there!  JR

Kyle,

OK,  I have scheduled some time off for a lonnnnnnnnng weekend.

Put us down for 4.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.  You know who you are! 

Cliff, Julie, Kelsey and Patrick

[Gary LaBombard]

I told you kyle, you'll be in for a good time, you'll see with these guys coming in especially also if Anita & John can come and they play that great music of theirs.  Gonna be a party that weekend!!

Golly Kyle!  With the roster I just read of those wanting to attend you couldn't imagine that Jackie & I could possibly sit here in Franklin for that week end do you?  Please add us in as well.

Since we're able to go early you can count on us for any assistance we're physically capable of doing.

Since I always carry a 2.5 gallon container of diesel I can stop by Leroy & Lila's and top him off.  That might hold him until spring or until the next Table Top rally. He'll have to make it to Arcadia on his own though.....
