Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Future RV-Dream Rallies?


I just went to look at the chances of getting on the waiting list for the Spring Rally.  All 60 spaces "sold out" and 60 people on the waiting list.  The waiting list is even closed 4 months before the Rally.  WOW

With that kind of interest will there ever be more than the current number of Rallies each year?  It looks like you could hold back to back Spring Rallies and be sold out.

What might the future hold?  Your success is well deserved.

Hi Russ,

You just never know with us.  We went from zero rallies to one to two to two plus a Boondocking Rally.  If we had known this year's Spring Rally would sell out as quickly as it did, we might have scheduled back-to-back.

For 2015, we'll have two educational rallies, a Boondocking Rally, and what we are calling an RV-Dreams Family Reunion Rally that will be more of a social, fun rally only for those that have attended a prior educational rally.

It is conceivable that we'll do more educational rallies each year, but no plans like that as of now.

Thanks for the question and the kind words.  :)

biggrinWhoo Hoo, looking forward to the social rally, reunion!! Any idea when / where, even "ball park" estimates? Sorry, the planner in me just can't help askingsmile  We'd also like to attend a boon docking rally but it just wasn't in the plans to do that in Florida this year.

Super idea!  Achieves two goals and will be a lot of fun. Probably too much fun but we'll be looking forward to it.

I'm curious if there might be another boondocking rally in 2016. We'd love that one.

Believe I read more people were at the spring rally that did not own an RV than those that did.

Wonder if there is any room in the schedule to add a few "rally" or training events specifically for those that do not own an RV. Seems like it could be setup as a two or three day conference in a suitable facility. Might be easier to plan by just booking a conference center room at a motel. But with more options as to location because there would be no need to plan around space for RV parking and out door events.

I would love to attend training at our local RV show but have to think conference training would be more ideal. Just a thought.

Might be a good way to meet the needs of what could be a spike in retirement to an RV with the baby boomers coming out.

RE: Future RV-Dreams Rallies?


fun2travel,

We are planning a 2016 RV-Dreams Boondocking Rally.  We haven't set dates or a location yet, but it will probably be the first half of March in Florida somewhere.

 

mds1,

There were about 60 out of 160 people at the 2015 Spring Rally that did not have RVs.  And they loved the opportunity to talk to those with RVs and tour lived-in RVs - it adds to the experience.  We certainly have kicked around the idea of having a three-day conference for those that don't have RVs at all, but finding the right facilities for the right price in an area that would have the best draw offers some challenges we're just not sure we want to take on.  smile
