ajshepherd Report post Posted October 17, 2016 We are going, booked and paid for. As it's the 95th, it seems like an important one to attend. It will be our first FMCA rally, so we are looking forward to attending and meeting several new friends. I have requested and secured a 50 amp site, and considering volunteering while we are there (Time dependent). Both Sheri and I would also like to attend training sessions. Your advise on what sessions we should consider would be well received. Thanks, hope to meet you all there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted October 18, 2016 aj. Brett has not said this yet, but we will have a Forum Meet & Greet, I don't have a schedule yet on what sessions we will have, but we will all have it sent to us or if your doing will call you'll have it in plenty of time! If you wish to volunteer, then I suggest you do it now...they really need a head count as early as possible and you will be there for orientation before most others arrive. Sorry, I can't be off more help. Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajshepherd Report post Posted October 18, 2016 Hi Carl: Thanks, I will reach out tomorrow and let them know we are interested in helping out. The Forum meet and greet will be perfect for us to meet everyone in one place. Hope that works out. Appreciate the help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keigm Report post Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) Susan and I are going. We will be attending the RV Basics program so we will have to get there early. We've just joined FMCA so this will be our 1st convention. I've seen those FCMA plaques for years at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta, I guess I will learn 1st hand what it's all about this coming March.

tbutler Report post Posted December 1, 2016 We're out! We never leave the RGV that early in the season and if we do it is to visit family. We have a springtime cruise coming up, Tahiti and the Society Islands, April 1-15 and we're going to spend a week on Tahiti before the cruise. Needless, we're tapped out. You'all have fun!

hermanmullins Report post Posted December 2, 2016 camelotsa, There are four going that are here on this post. Carl, Bill, Brett and myself. We will all be at the Meet and Greet get together. Brett will let us know where when he get a space. Please be sure to join us there. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted December 2, 2016 Well as of now I think 12 coaches from one club we belong to and at least 5 from the forum, So that would be 17 so far but it is early. I have reservations, as of today, for 2 nights (March 4, 5 leaving on 6) at Silverado RV Resort in Eloy, AZ which is 45 miles from Chandler. The rate is $35 a night with a 2 night minimum and a $25 non-refundable deposit. Like all the area parks the sites are back-ins. I researched some of the sights listed and since we will be going on to California after the rally I didn't want to pay $70 a night. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
