Rallies

Are RV rallies a thing of the past?

    I'm at a loss there... I'm not sure why the list isn't working for you

    When I look at the list it shows 33 rallies.
  • Some groups that I know have rallies;
    FMCA
    Escapees
    Good Sam
    RVillage

    Most are national, state, and local level.

    There are also many brand specific rallies.

    Nope, not according to this list:

    That's a start. 15 years ago there would be threads on 5-10 non-commercials RV rallies for each state. Some were rallies that were in their 5th or more annual runs.....especially in California. San Antonio Lake (SAL Rally) was one the best ever, along with one engineered by Lee Brandt at Kings River. Did everyone get old on me?
  • Here in Tucson we're having the FMCA National rally in a couple of weeks. Expecting a huge turnout.
  • IMO faded out. Many had too many rules, were for only one brand or type. Gatherings I go to are open to everyone, usually boondocking, no campground fees, not overly structured, no funny vests or hats, no name tags (Hello! I’m Bill) etc.
