Is there any interest in having an informal "Northeast Forum" Rally? I was thinking it could be a very informal get together for Airstreamers (regardless of WBCCI status)! This would be a great way to meet other forum members for those that are interested.
It seems like there is quite a bit of interest up and down the East Coast! I would say the first steps would be to determine an approximate geographic area that everyone is willing to travel to and to determine a date. If everyone who is interested could reply to this thread with the following info, I would be happy to compile the results:
1) What state are you located in (if the info isn't already part of your post/signature)?
2) How far are you willing to travel for a weekend?
3) What weekends are you available this fall?
I'll go first:
1) Massachusetts
2) VT, ME, MA, Eastern NY, CT, RI, NH, Eastern PA
3) No availability in Sept; Oct 16 - 17, Oct 23 - 24, Oct 30 - 31
An idea for next year is we could plan a longer rally to give the New England folks a chance to travel further south and the South Eastern folks a chance to travel further north!
We'd come if the dates work. We're planning to do Region 1 Aug 5-8, then no plans until the week after Labor Day. We're in northern VT and would go 300 miles.
Massachusetts makes sense since it's pretty central. But there's some great stuff in VT, the Adirondacks, & NH. I would recommend Jamaica State Park in southern VT, anywhere between Lincoln and Conway NH, and most state parks in the Adirondacks or Catskills. Or in Maine, anywhere along the coast from the NH border to Bar Harbor is good for us.
Late October is no good for us since we are usually forced to winterize by mid-October.
Chuck..
I believe she did include Maine but, Not NH~!!
Early Oct time frame is perfect for me~

My bad! Thank goodness for the "edit" button...I've fixed my oversight! Have I ever told you that NH is one of my personal favorite destinations for camping?
I know of a really nice, woodsy campground in Boothbay, ME, that I might suggest.
Thing I'm wondering about, though, is that alot of places around here close up shop ~Oct 15. so "later" might leave fewer options.
Chuck,
You make a very strong point there about the closing date~
I know a place here in NH, that might be available around the first of Oct.
(We held a buddy rally there last year.
Some of the pictures are on the forum here..)
It's real private~!!
Just a thought..
