Ma says she can use a magic marker and reuse last years if you like, I think they call that repurposing .

I really hope you and Ma can contain yourselves. You promised not to embarrass the kids! lol

GOLF ANYONE?

Tentatively scheduled for Friday, July 18th.

We would like to thank Michael Walker for planning a golf outing during the rally. He is in the process of picking a course and we'll keep you informed on the progress here. Please post if you are interested in playing so Michael can keep a contact list.

 

[Miller0758]

Very interested

Silly game - hit a little ball as far as you can then chase it

And we only have golf cart traffic to contend with.

Promised Land State Park is a beautiful park - can be a bit tight in spots but nothing that can not be navigated. I have only stayed there once and at that it was only an overnight in the late fall on the way home. Promised Land State Park is actually off of 84 since you transition over to 84 just north/east of Scranton PA.

Looking forward to having you up "north" in Mass next year!

 

[dbylinski]

Awesome Jim! Judging from the early reservations we should have a great time in Massachusetts. Welcome to your 3rd Northeast Region Rally!

Jim if you want to beat VA on your second day about 90 more miles to Hagerstown/Antietam KOA in Williamsport,MD

Thanks Ann and Mike. I like the suggestion and have altered my route (new route link). I wouldn't mind moving stop D out 70 more miles making day 3 a 300 miler, thereby shortening the final day of travel a bit. I always prefer the last day of travel into the rally location as a shorter day of travel to allow time for setup and howdys etc.

Any ideas on where to stay, 70 miles further north from Greentown, PA (Promised Land State Park)?

 

[Jim & Harriet]

Thinking that this rally could fit nicely into a long visit to New England.

You are so right Harriet! Not to mention the possibility of a Yankees vs Red Sox Game on Sunday night to close out the rally! Let's do it!

Looking into a group rate for tickets?
