We would very much like to attend! However, we cannot commit yet. My husband is having knee surgery and we need to know his schedule for the surgery and healing first. So, if all goes well and there are still openings both with this group and at the RV park, we would love to join you!

New to Heartland here. We have a 2018 Heartland 4115 Cyclone. We live on the FL panhandle and this is about our closest rally to attend. I was curious what sites those that are attending RV sites are located. It would be nice to be together. Where are ya'll from also?

New to Heartland- Just a few questions- Do you have to be a club member? Do you have to be from state of the chapter? We are interested in the Cullman Rally and are from NW Florida. We are new owners of the Heartland brand.

1. Nope, you don't have to be club member to attend the Rally (rules recently changed). However, I would encourage you to join (there is no charge for membership). If you click on the "Owners Club" tab at the top of the page it will provide you lots of good info about the club. You can also follow this link https://heartlandowners.org/club/join-the-club/ to fill out an application.
2. Nope, you don't have to be from the State of the Chapter. The Alabama chapter already includes one couple from NW Florida.

New members here (Fox and DrSus) from the Ft Rucker area (235 miles south of Cullman).
Today we received our Heartland Member Number (5164) and are hoping to book a reservation in the morning (apparently they don't work 24s day).

Coincidentally - before we owned this Heartland (Big Horn 3750FL) my wife and her friend were already planning to attend the arts and crafts fair simultaneously taking place - so the next move was lets all four go and enjoy a week.

Anticipated dates Arrive Wed Sep 5, Depart Wed Sep12. Will confirm it all once complete.

Fox,
USA RET

We've never attended a rally before (so we have no idea of expectations) so please excuse us if we do something wrong.

Is there a schedule or just simply come go/ do what one pleases? I see something about a pot luck meal, something we've never tried in our previous campers, so a bit of worry there.
Is our bringing (non-camping) guests a violation? In fairness we're leaving the dogs behind to make it more comfy for them; something I rarely do - they travel with us.

Is there a secret handshake to ID other members - or must we first have 100 posting?

See y'all soon.

Hi Fox - Welcome to the Heartland Owners Club! We’re glad you decided to join in on the HOC fun and join us at the upcoming rally in Cullman.

We’re still finalizing the agenda and will get it published in the next couple of weeks. However, you can plan on a “meet-n-greet” Friday evening, a pancake breakfast on Saturday, dinner Saturday evening (specifics to follow), and coffee/pastries Sunday morning. There is no secret handshake and nothing to worry about regarding the pot-luck.

There is no set schedule in order that everyone can attend and enjoy the Cullman area and the Bernard Blues and BBQ festival.

You asked about bringing non-camping guests. This question and other good info can be found by clicking on the “Owners Club” tab at the top of the page (https://heartlandowners.org/club/). Regarding bringing non-camping guests it provides the following:

“Q. I own a Heartland RV, am a Club member and I want to bring some friends or family in my Heartland RV to a rally – is this allowed?
A. Yes, however you may be required to pay a per person fee for more than 2 people in a rig. Check with the Rally host prior to registering. Any additional person fee must be paid to the Rally host upon your arrival.”

For the Alabama rally there will be a $10.00/person fee for your non-camping guest(s).

If you have additional questions please feel free to post them in the forum, send me a private message or call. We look forward to meeting you at the rally.
