Larry, it was also good to meet you at the Oroville Rally. I always wondered who the headhunter was. Gail and I are looking forward to meeting many more Heartland Owners at the October Rally in Buellton. We always enjoy our trips to the Coastal area around Santa Barbara and Pismo Beach. We also enjoy visiting Solvang and it's time for a new Solvang T-shirt. Are you planning one for this Rally? I am still learning how to navigate around this site so hopefully it will be posted as I intend it to be.

Hi Larry and Debbie, We had a great time at last years rally in Buellton, can't wait to do it again. It was also great to see so many members come to our rescue when our RV caught the tree. I guess that's what it's all about. Spending time with nice people you meet along life's highway. Being an RV'er is great, but the rallies make it even better. We hope the meet even more RV'er this year. See ya soon. 10/14-19

Hi everyone,

Debbi and I are really excited with such a quick and large response to the announcement of our So Cal Buellton rally October 15-17th, with already 14 rigs, all Heartlands signed up so far, and it's only April. We are hoping that we will be able to have 2 Heartland dealers and possibly Mike Moreland, Western Regional Mgr. for Big Horns and Landmarks, in attendance, as well. Buellton is a great location, one block from Solvang, a Danish European styled village nestled in the Santa Ynez Valley. Many of last years couples are coming again early the week of the rally and staying several days longer, and there are more activities to do and see then you can believe. People come from all over the world to enjoy the amenities of this area. We are planning a great rally, including at least one catered dinner on-site from 71 Palm, a fancy, but down to earth French-American restaurant, that was originally a beautiful old-style home in Ventura. Most likely they will provide a BBQ Chicken and Tri-Tip yummy dinner, served in our exclusive Clubhouse right next to our Rally Site HQ's. Our potluck dinner most likely will be on Saturday, and our BBQ burgers and hot dogs will be on Sunday, so feel free to stay a few extra days, and enjoy your vacation. At the end of the summer we will start taking names for golfing, wine tasting tours, and a horseshoe tourney. Last year we had 27 RV's, 3 show models, and over 65 people, from CA, OR, WA, NV, Fl, and Canada, all having a great time meeting new people, partying, and revisiting old friends once again. And of course, we expect an exciting raffle with lots of great gifts to win on Saturday nite. That's it for now folks, so invite all your RV friends from far and near to join in one great party! If anyone is up for karaoke, let us know, so we can arrange to bring equipment to hear great singing and some special howling from our So Cal Chapter Leader Bob. LOL. If you think of any activity that you would like us to include, let me know, and if there is sufficient interest, voila, we will make it happen.

Pass the word around that we are planning a great rally, so invite your fellow RV friends and let me know of any SOB's who might like to join us. Please revisit the original post on this rally thread periodically as we update information regularly.
Debbi and I look forward to seeing you all soon.

Hi DRS_SLS, as Bob said we have plenty of room and would love to have you join us. Many of the Heartland owners would be happy to answer any and all questions regarding your new Big Country when you are in Buellton. Please email me your contact info including your cell so we can update you as time progresses and we get closer to the rally. It would probably be in your best interests to join the Heartland Owners Club, which you can read about by going to the main forum and scrolling down to the Owners Club section. We found it well worth joining and it will save you money and has many benefits. I would appreciate you calling me on my cell, which is on the first post, so I can explain how the rally works.

Please post by quick reply who you are, where you live, and how long you want to spend at the rally. If you look at the main rally post #1, you will be the 15th camper to sign up, and will also find my cell and email info. I will add you now, and then amend it with your names and your length of stay, once we know. Glad to have you join us, you will make many new friends and have a great time, as we all do. We are lucky enough that most, if not all of the CA Chapter leaders will be there as well. Hope to speak to you soon, and have a great camping summer in your new rig.
I am sure Kristy, Chapter Leader in Oregon at the Winchester Bay rally, and Teresa, CA Central CA Chapter Leader at the Jackson rally, would love to have you attend both of their rally's as well in the summer and fall, respectively.

My wife and I are going to Cancun on Thursday, so between April 29th-May 15th we will only be available by email, which we will check every few days, so please call me today or tomorrow if you wouldn't mind.

We would love to have you at the Oregon rally in June! Here is the thread with the info.

We had an ocean front site just open up. If you would like to come and want that site, let me know and we can arrange that with the park. There are other sites available too.

It so happens that we are leaving for a 2 week trip on June 11 for Oregon & Washington. We are heading to Whidby Island for a week, a couple of nites with our Big Country on San Juan Island.

Hi Larry,

Just made my air travel plans and cottage reservation for this rally. Nancy and I will arrive at Flying Flags on Friday and will be coming in from the north from San Simeon, visiting Hearst Castle. We'll be heading home Sunday after breakfast.

We're looking forward to seeing everyone again and hopefully some new folks too. Funny item, was talking with the gal that took my call at Flying Flags - she is taking delivery of an ElkRidge in the next few days!
