I noted a request for rally dates for next year in the previous thread for 2016. Therefore, I am starting a new thread for the 2017 Rally.
We have finalised the dates for next year's Rally - July 16th to July 23rd. The location is the same campground, Shipshewana South Park, Shipshewana, Indiana.
The 2016 Rally was the first organised by the ROG and by all reports was the best one yet. Planning for 2017 started at Shipshewana and John has a huge group of volunteers, so I expect even more improvements and new initiatives for 2017.
As per previous years, please call the campground (260-768-4669) to make a reservation, ensuring you mention the Redwood Rally. Do not make a reservation online, as you will not receive the discount. The campground closes November 1st until the New Year and even the office is not manned during this period.
John has reserved the entire campground, so lets build some momentum and fill the campground next July. John will provide further details, when available.
Andy,
Any info on regional rally's?
Why the change in dates?
Unfortunately we won't be making it.

Steve,
We are still considering them, but after the RW/CR experience of cancelling all but 1, due to poor registration, we want to get it right the first time. We still have loads to learn about hosting rallies and want to make the National Rally even better, hard to believe, but that is John's objective.
Once John and his legion of volunteers advise they are ready to expand to a Regional Rally we will make it happen. Will it be 2017 - probably not.
I have just made arrangement for storage down in Lynden again for when we hit the coast at end of October. Terry is home about the same time, so how about a NW social in November.
Sounds good to me! Thank you.
We're in!
Presently in Amarillo and heading to CO.

Steve, the date change was requested by RW Mangement. If kept at the end of the month there would be no one from RW or the Service Center in attendance.
We will be in Borrego Springs Ca. over the winter, if Ozzie and Terry are there as well we can have a get together with other RW owners who may be at the Springs RV resort or in the area.
Where will it be?
Shipshewana South Campground.

Sally,
At this time, the only requirement is to register with the campground. However, good luck getting in touch with them, as I have being trying now for about 2 weeks. They also close from November 1st to mid January.
Well, if we are on the road and have our new 3901MB we will try to be there.
Still have not listed the house yet, alot to do yet.
