2007 Cherry Blossom Rally

[Shacksman]

We're at it again, so if you missed last year you better hurry up and get that trailer ready to roll.


Washington D.C. Unit 8th annual Cherry Blossom Rally
April 12 - 15, 2007

Well it' time for winter to end and the cherry blossums are right
on schedule for blooming during the Cherry Blossum Rally. We have
lots of registations but there is room for more so this year we
are making it open to buddies. If you have any friends wondering
where you get off to with your Airstream trailer every April,
bring them along.
This year clean out your garage and bring along all those extra
trailer parts and stuff and set up during the open house. Find
treasures and spare parts you can't live without. Help some of us
make room for more trailers at home.
Please let us know if you are comming so we can plan the food for
Saturday dinner and morning breakfasts

We might be interested in the rally. Where is it to be held and what are the facilities like?

[munimula]

The Rally is held in Maryland - I think the area is called the eastern shore - don't quote me on that. i do know it's only about a 30 minute ride into DC.

The Rallty takes place on a farm. services include rally style water and electric (daisy chained). no dump on site that i know of.

follow the link in my post above for more specifics.

here is a link to my '06 experience as a first timer at Cherry Blossom -

We put up a big tent for meals and nightly get-togethers. We set up semi-circle facing the tent. There's lots of water rally style, bring hoses and "Y's" . We set up electric runs to keep everyones battery charged. The washwater goes on the ground and black goes with you.
The farm is 30 minutes from D.C. or closer to the metro for a ride into D.C.
There's lots of old and new trailers, good friends and food. It's a great way to get the season started.

To all on the forums,

Would like to invite everyone on the forums to our "Cherry Blossom Rally" here outside of Washington, DC on April 12-15th, 2007. This is what s called a "BUDDY" rally. That means, even if you "are not" a WBCCI member, you can join us for this rally. I think most will say, the Washington, DC Unit is the most "Laid Back" unit in all of the WBCCI. There will be kids of all ages, babies-75 years. The only difference will be be the type of "bottle" from which they drink! Most of the units (about 75-80%) will be vintage with some vintage pullers bringing them in to camp. Here's a link to our website for info or just email Doug Rowbottom via his link at the top of the page.

If you have any questions, let us know!

Sounds like our kind of group. How do I join?

We have been looking forward to this since we couldn't get the trailer ready in time for last year. Permo kick off event of the year.

Just do a google search on WDCU and you will get the web site. You can contact Paul Wadell (previous post) for more info. This is a great group that we ran into in Camp Hatteras this past summer and joined right away. Great mix of kids and adults, dogs and cats!
