Thumbs up Great Smokey Mountain Getaway


Great Smokey Mountain Getaway Rally

WHAT IS IT?
This is our first Rally EVER, and well... OUR FIRST TIME STAYING IN OUR NEW VINTAGE AIRSTREAM! As you can tell, my wife and I are very excited about owning our silver bundle of joy. We have been oooing and ahhhhing over airstreams for a while now and finally got an opportunity to purchase one right here at the http://www.airclassifieds.com

So, without adue.... and all of our excitement, we want to break in our airstream right! Come join us for fun, swimmin in the river, trout fishing, local festivities and "SHOW OFF" your beautiful silver bullet.

This rally only has one restriction... Airstreams only, the older the better!

The aim of this Rally is to meet new and intersting airstreamers and best of all, the airstreams will be judged and awards will be given out for the top 3 airstreams.

WHAT ARE THE AWARDS?
First Prize: $50.00, tickets for two to "Sweet Fanney Adams Theater",
and a nice first place ribbon.
Second Prize: $40.00 and a nice second prize ribbon
Third Prize: $25.00 and a nice third prize ribbon

WHERE IS IT?
This Airstream Rally is being held in the scenic Smokey Mountains setting of Gatlinburg Tennesse. Gatlinburg is nestled by its lonesome in the basin of the Great Smokey Mountain National Park, surrounding it on three sides! The RV Campground we will be utilizing is one of our favorite spots here in town, GREENBRIER RV CAMPGROUND.

It is the most rustic of the campgrounds here in town, yet it is by far the best. The whole campground is surrounded on all sides by a slow moving stream and the land mass which makes up the campground is called GREENBRIER ISLAND. Once you drive across the bridge and enter the campground you will know why we love it so much. The scenery is brethtaking with mountain views of Mt. Lecont (the highest peak on the Eastern Seaboard). located at one end of the campground is a swimmin hole where my wifes parents use to swim as children and the campground is located close to the ARTS & CRAFTS district.

The Arts and Crafts district is the LARGEST conglomeration of artists in these great United States of America. You will find everything from painters and sculpturists to broom-makers and home made pottery shops.

ABOUT GATLINBURG: (Quoted from the gatlinburg.com website)
It just makes sense to stay in the mountains of Gatlinburg! The community of Gatlinburg, Tennessee is only two miles long by five miles wide, with just over 3,500 people who call the mountain burg home. The adjacent Great Smoky Mountains National Park, now boasting over nine million visitors annually, has transformed Gatlinburg into a mountain resort destination, packed with Smoky Mountain lodging and accommodations of every sort, dozens of local to national restaurants, and attractions galore! Especially in spring, you will want to experience camping in the Gatlinburg area, Gatlinburg golf and Gatlinburg's whitewater rafting opportunities.

HOW TO MAKE RESERVATIONS:
Please call the GREENBRIER CAMPGROUND DIRECTLY to researve your spot at the park. Contact Ron and Darlene McCarter at (865) 436-4243 - they are the owners of the RV Park. Mention that you are coming for the "Great Smokey Mountain Getaway Airstream Rally"

Once you have made your reservation please make sure you enroll on the Rally Calendar. HERE IS A LINK TO ENROLL IN THIS RALLY:

We forgot to mention: GREENBRIER RV CAMPGROUND ONLY WILL HOLD ABOUT 90 CAMPERS... SO PLEASE BOOK ASAP.

ALSO NOTE: Gatlinburg is very busy during the summer months, and to make sure we rent out the whole park we must book early!

Thanks for checking out our Rally page and again, see you there!

ONE MORE UPDATE:

I just spoke with Darlene (the Owner) and she stated she is discounting us a bit as well... She is holding 25 Full Hookup sites (Cable, water, elect, internet) and 25 partial hookup sites (elect, water).

BUT - You have to book this month or we cant guarentee a place for you!

P.S. You also get a discount if you pay in cash when you arrive instead of using credit...



Hope to see you here!

Your Hosts... Greg and Samantha
