Additional Info:
------------------------------
Will also have a club-supplied breakfast, probably on Saturday morning - depends upon other planned activities. Will have one or two planned events - agenda will be developed. Campground is between Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. just off US131 (exit 59). Also near Holland, Grand Haven and South Haven. Right now we are thinking about visiting the President Ford Musuem and the Frederick Meijer Gardens on Friday. Make sure you have your Heartland badges to obtain the convention rates.

We will have dinner on Friday nightg at Sam's Place near the campground - reservations under my name or the chapter name.

Breakfast will be on Saturday and steak dinner/potluck will be that evening at the pavillion. However, we will need grills to cook on as the campground has none there. Is yours available?

Cards or bonfire available each night.

We are being sponsored by General RV of Wayland who will furnish some door prizes and have a couple of coaches to tour.

My wife, Judi, and I plan to attend. We'll be coming straight from the Wisconsin Rally. Looking forward to it. I have a bunch of relatives, including my Dad, living in Holland.

Happy to have you two coming. More details will be forthcoming after the first of the year.

 

[happykraut]

Just called to make reservations for this rally. They are NOT taking reservations at this time. She will call me sometimes in January.

 

[cdbMidland]

Yes, unfortunately, they do not take any reservations until after the first of the year. I've been assurred that this will not be a problem as we have 30-35 sites spoken for.

 

[happykraut]

Perhaps someone could post a note to let us know that they are now open for registration when the time comes.

Just make sure that you identify yourself as being with the Heartland group (even the SOBs) and they are supposed to put us together in a group.

We've never been to he rallys before with our Cyclone, but I wanted to jump in and say this is a great resort. We tsay here regularly. The managers, Janie and Matt, are great. We just met up with them the other night at the Novi show. My kids love this place. In fact, we've considered getting a summer spot here and selling our lot up north. If you were ever thinking about going, now is the time. We're going to give Janie a jingle and we might se you all there!
