The Cam-Plex features several RV dedicated areas. The Marquee Campground has been selected to circle the wagons, featuring 250 full hook-up sites, 5 rows (A,B,C,D,E) each offering 50 sites featuring 20-50AMP & 30-30AMP sites per row. RV parking sites will feature 100% grass laden Terra-Fir ma with some sites displaying a vacant site between them. Each site is 25 feet wide & 50 feet long. All roadways are 40 feet wide and you may park your TV parallel to the front of your RV or on the side. We also have a dedicated parking area for those not needing their TV close at hand. Wow, talk about the room to PLAY! Oh, by the way, the Marquee lot is directly across the street from the Rally hall. Less than a block to walk!!!!
This event is Hosted by the Mountain Region & Members, dedicated exclusively for you,
“ALL HOC Members and Heartland Owners”!
Our Rally “theme” is Western and we will feature one “Very Special Night”.
Jim Beletti has been our HOC “Founder, Leader and go to Parts Guy” going on 14 years with this Rally!
The end of 2022 may consummate his ending of a fantastic run!
At this point in time, we don’t have the exact date so this Rally will stage the foundation for a
“JIM BELETTI ROAST”
This night will eclipse any Hollywood celebrity roast.
We have our own Rodney Dangerfield’s & Foster Brooks expelling stories faster than Jim can replace your RV Lock!
Hold UP NOW WHOA! You can’t miss this ONE!
Book early as our goal is to sell all 140 RV Sites in honor of our beloved JimB.
Afterward join us for a caravan to “North of the border” for our Canadian Neighbors Regional Rally, perhaps with a stop in Butte MT for a short rally and rest stop on the way. TBA.

- Rally attendance is based on two per RV, a surcharge TBA will apply to each additional person in your RV.

- Items being sold during the Rally must collect WY State Sales Tax. Those desiring tables 4-sale items will receive the information in a separate email. No tax collected on White elephant & barter table items.
- Heartland Express Stagecoach – Our venue is offering use of their open-air covered roof 25-30 seat trolley to be pulled by our own TV. After a site inspection of the Cam-Plex in Sept 2019, the Rally RV sites are less than a block walk. This feature will not be offered as a taxi service and while liability issues have been approved by Heartland, we may incorporate this later for some fun Cam-Plex tours. TBD
- You may bring your own alcoholic beverages, food & other drinks into the Energy Building or while walking around the area

- When posting for reservations, indicate 30 or 50 AMP Service
- If requesting sites close to others in your party, I need all names.
- Post if you want a Golf Cart.
- Bus tours require a minimum number for a tour & full payment far in advance of service. If you cancel after payment, it will be up to you to sell your tour seat. No refunds as Tours are under a guaranteed contract.
- NOTE: Please look at the RV site map, 50 amp sites are grouped in 4's, 2 sites back to back. If you have a 50 A ext cord, let me know. This will assist in spreading vacant sites within the 50 AMP area as well as the 30 AMP sites.
- Cam-Plex will provide a 12 passenger bus & driver to shuttle small groups into town and pick up service. Hours of operation TBD. There is no charge for this service - it is part of the Rally Package!
