We traveled to several across the country, some more than once, We had a grand time at all the rallies and met so many wonderful people, some of which we still stay in touch with.
Currently, rallies have very substantially diminished and most small local rallies groups had no longer exist. Why? the younger folks are not joiners or organization inclined. There are a multitude of reasons but generally I call it the "electronic age".
Alost all service and charity clubs are having a difficult time finding and retaining new members. As an example, I have been an Elk for over 47 years. At that time clubs were packed with members. Now our downtown lodge is closed and merged with our valley club and we are down to under 400 members with average member age at 73.
This "electronic age" has radically changed our society including the RV scene we have all loved.
