Tom, welcome to the forum. I would go to the rally website and register. There you will get on the waiting list. http://rvrally.net/
If you can make it, it is a great rally.
Peace

Well whatdoyaknow, I lucked up and ended up getting a spot after all. We'll be coming in Thursday evening, have to work that morning and hopefully leaving early afternoon. We have another camping couple coming along, I'm still trying to work them into a HL but he said having a paid off trailer is better than having another payment at the moment.... I hate when people make sense. 
See ya'll there.
See ya'll there.

I did, I was on the waiting list for a little while and they called my DW to ask her if we still wanted a spot. Went back on the site and re-entered our info, I just haven't sent them a pic to put on the Rally site. I hate procrastination...:angel:

We haven't been there before but the couple coming with us has but it's been at least 5 yrs ago and they said even then it was real nice.
We're going to miss the Thursday night Meet and Greet, just depends on when DW can get off of work. Most likely be early evening when we pull in.
We'll be doing the restaurant Fri and dinner Sat night but may end up heading into Fredricksburg either Friday morning or early Sat just because we need to leave out Sunday so we get back in enough time to unload and get ready for Monday. Luckily it isn't too far for us to travel.

Way to go Roy. I just saw your name on the list. 12 Heartlanders now make up 28% of the attendees at this RV.net rally.

Nancy and I made a couple of changes yesterday to our rally registration. First, we were told that most of the shops in Fredericksburg are closed on Sunday. We were planning to walk the shops before Rock Box, so we were planning to drive ourselves. We're now planning to "take the bus" with most of the group.
The other change we made was to signup for the Valentines Day dinner and show. We took $22 seating as I preferred chairs that faced the stage rather than having to turning our chairs around.
Here's our plan thus far:
Monday:
Arrive early afternoon
Tuesday:
Considering a day trip to Fredericksburg, TX for lunch and shops. Leave around 11 am - anyone interested?
6:00 Valentine's Dinner at CG
7:00 Valentine's Show at CG
Wednesday:
Considering a day trip to Stonewall, TX to tour LBJ Ranch and House ($2). If time and energy allow, we may continue down the road to Johnson City to visit the Johnson Settlement. Anyone interested?
Thursday:
4:30 Meet and Greet (just show up)
6:00 T-Bone Dinner for 2 at the CG (requires signup)
7:30 Cards and Games in rally hall (we're not card players, but we'll hang out for a while)
Friday:
4:30 Leave as a group to Kerrville for dinner at Mamacita's
Saturday:
8:00 - 9:30 Breakfast at CG (ala carte menu)
10 - Noon Craft Show / Tables in rally hall (Nancy will have a Mary Kay table setup there)
6:00 Sweetheart Dinner at CG
Sunday:
1:00 Bus Leaves for Rock Box Show in Fredericksburg
6:30 Potluck at CG - bring side dish to share and own meat to grill
Monday:
Leaving by checkout time

Comment for Heartlanders at the Sweetheart Rally
Hey Heartlanders,
I'm really looking forward to seeing everyone next week. Hope you're feeling the same way!
Some of you have been coming to this rally for several years now. This is my 3rd year. I think it's Jim and Bette McGee's 10th year!
Anyway, a comment was made to me recently (by another Heartlander) that in past years, some non-Heartland owners at the Sweetheart rally felt the Heartlanders sort of kept to themselves as a group. I feel this is human nature to want to hang out with your pals and those who you have a deeper connection with (same brand, friendship etc.). But I do understand the comment.
And for 2012, we've somehow managed to comprise the highest (28%) same-brand of attendees at this rally, and while we'll have plenty of time to meet each other, hang out together etc., I'd like to ask each of you to please make a concerted effort to meet, greet and get to know non-Heartland attendees during this rally. Not in an effort to win them over to our brand - that sort of thing happens anyway Rather, to show others how friendly we are and truly to meet and befriend more RVers. You never know, you just might make a great new friend!
Thanks and let's have some fun!

This year would have also been our third year at the Sweetheart Rally. Really feeling bad about having to cancel our trip and not being able to join in on this fun rally. Will miss visiting with our non-heartland friends (great folks), but hope our place was taken by another Heartlander; keeping up the representaton. Great place to learn Mexican Train Dominos and will miss the friendly game of Texas Hold 'em. Great food, friends and activities. Already getting excited about next year. Meanwhile looking forward to Texas chapter rally at Spring. Hope everyone has a great time and safe travels.

Please contact the Mr. Ulmer so he won't be stuck with charges for things ordered and maybe he can get someone to take your place. Mr. Ulmer has ordered a number of things out of his pocket, such as shirts, hats and tickets for things such as the Rock Box.
Really was looking forward to seeing you again. Hope your not having a serious problem. Let me know how your doing.

Bob, we cancelled a couple of weeks ago and I spoke with Larry Ulmer. Did have a sweatshirt ordered and he is supposed to mail it to me (will make it right so he is not out anything). Don't want to miss out on a good sweatshirt that takes off the chill on fishing trips this time of year. After we talked a couple of weeks ago about a visit when you left Livingston, we did get some discouraging medical report. Last week we went to MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston after local lab report identified a problem area. Diane had additonal medical test while at MDACC, but we have not received any additional information. Prayers would be appreciated. Hope to see you at the rally at Rayford Crossing. Thanks for the concern.
