It looks like I'll be in Cedar Rapids working all summer and some of the fall, and I think I'm going to stay at that Amana colonies while I'm there. It seems like they're the only place around that allows 50 amp, full hookup, and extended stay. If I'm still there when the Rally comes, I'll definitely participate!

Hdd - Hope to see you there.

When do you think you will know by? I would like to have a headcount by 9/15/10 to help finalize plans.

All,

Sorry for the lack of updates, work is extremely busy, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Lauren (our 2 year old) has my spare time monoploized with all kinds of questions and activities.....

We are working on an agenda, hopefully should have more info in the coming weeks.

Thanks for your patience.

Mark and Jennifer,
While working on one of our routes to San Diego for this fall we noticed we will be coming close to Amana. We were planning on spending a couple days in Iowa City so we just might switch it to Amana. Looks like we will be in the area around 9/30 and leave on 10/3. Don't know if this will be our route yet for sure as we usually have 2 or 3 routes ready just in case weather changes things.
But seeing as there will be a Rally on the way and an Oktoberfest to boot it definitely puts this route at the TOP.
Can't guarantee if we will be there but it sure is looking good.

Hi All,

Sorry for the lack of updates, but we met with Ketelsen RV last week and they are on board to help out with the rally, great bunch of folks.

I will have an agenda out next week, and will get an updated attendee list as well.

Busy here at work, but we are finding some time to use the Sundance.

Re: EVENT: Heartland Chapter Rally: IA, Amana* - 10/1/2010 to 10/03/2010

We are stopping on our way to San Diego, so please put us down too.
We should arrive Thursday and Depart Sunday.
 
Hi Jim and Wilma,

That is so awesome that you are going to rally with us on your way through the area. The Youngers from MN did the same thing at the WI rally. It's a great reminder for all that any Heartland Owners Club member can attend any Heartland rally anywhere across North America. And in most cases, non-Club Member Heartland product owners are welcome as well.

Let the summer rallies begin!

Count us in! We'll represent Wisconsin. I tried calling the park but got the recorder. We'll make our reservations asap. See you then!

On Edit: OK Reservations made. We'll be arriving Thursday. I haven't read the entire thread yet so I'll be checking for a list for the potluck. There it is again. Food!

Sounds great, looking forward to having you.

List for potluck not yet started, need to determine the meat selection before we add the side dished...... FOOD is ALWAYS on my mind.
