Just heard back from the campground who has blocked us off rows I, J and K for the rally, that way we will all be together. YEAH ;) The campground also said they will honor the rally rate before and after the rally dates for those that would like to come in early or leave a little later :D

As time goes on, we will let ya'll know activities as they develop.

I just put it on the calendar. Rates sure have gone up there since our last stay. We like the location and surrounding area.

We will plan on being there whether or not that is still our home park (we stay there when I work downtown). By the way, Nathan or Byrd, the management is in flux there right now. Not sure who you talked to, but Fred and Jen recently left and there is temporary management in place from KOA right now. Wouldn't hurt to follow up as time progresses.

Yes Malcolm, the management is changing but I have been working with the corporate regional manager with everything documented so we are good. The campground had some major upgrades and renovations which is to the good for those who were there in 2010 for the National rally. Hope you and Valerie can make it.

OK, cool.

We will plan on being there. Since we stay there on a regular basis in a longer-term site, we will be making reservations later on probably over in the longer-term area (Just a couple rows over, typically). Pencil us in as a "Yes", though we may or may not be in the I, J or K rows with the rest of the folks (we generally stay in G row).

Heading out west next year. Hopefully will not fall in love out there and decide to stay for the year. But if we come back east after summer then will definitely stop for rally.

Yea - The Combs are coming. Golf - hummmm - Do you want to head up the golf outing/s Tom? Nathan will be glad to hand the reins over to you :) if you would like to organize it.

Seren - heading west is a blast which you will love. We have done it a couple of times over the years and plan on doing it again in 2017 after the National rally, ending up in Alaska. We would love to have ya'll but understand the fun seeing what's out there.

I am not one to step on the big guys toes. Just though that out as a question. You know me, golf clubs always go, Millie and Lucifer might have to stay at home. LOL

Now Now - Ms. Millie better come but for Lucifer-ummm but I guess he can come too. And yes - step- step - step all you want. The only Nathan can say is OUCH.

Tell the big guy I will handle scheduling a round or two (Thursday/Friday mornings) of golf for those who want to play. Will use Two Rivers which is like only 2 miles of so from the KOA.
