[sandlapper]

Come join us for Springtime in the Blue Ridge Mountains as we gather for our annual WBAC Region 3 Rally April 24-28, 2019 in Marion, NC, ''where main street meets the mountains''.

Membership in the Airstream Club is NOT required, everyone is welcome.

We have 5 days of fun and fellowship planned at the same location as Alumalina. Seminars, food, hiking, biking, walking, breweries, wineries, distilleries, craft fair/flea market, entertainment, and lots of paroozing with many of the folks you already know.

All in the shadows of the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Mt Mitchell.

Full hook up sites, all in rally style parking on level grass.

Registration and more info is available on the Region 3 website at

region3.wbcci.net. , or reach out to me here.

Come join us, you will like it.

John,
I think that we can make this. How late can we register? Or will it be as easy as Alumalina?

Hey yawl,

You know me....I like easy. When things are easy, more time can be spent on the fun stuff. And I love fun stuff.

As always, trying to get a head count for planning purposes. Currently we have 113 rigs signed on.

The easiest way to register is via the Region 3 website at Region3.WBCCI.net. You will see the rally info. It will be easier for us to keep an accurate count through the website, but a note to me here will work too.

There are 3 options listed on the website, the first is easiest....just fill in the blanks, no money to send, and if plans change, just let us know.

We plan the same format as Alumalina, with the focus on fun and fellowship with friends.

Let me know if you need any additional info. Hope you can make it.

Easy John.

Are there instructions to get in and park. Seem to remember you want to avoid driving thru camping world.

Yeah, you don’t want to do that. If I recall correctly There’s an entrance to the campground adjacent to camping world that you want to use. Maybe John can remind us of the street name.

Resistoflex Road is just West of the Camping World entrance. You'll want to take Resistoflex.

That's it, thanks.

Hi Mr. John!
I am Logan, you met my father and me on Thursday night at the Airstream Rally. We walked by your camper while you were visiting with friends and gave me your card and contact info. Just wanted to connect on here! After learning about the Rally and walking through to see the "Airstream Heaven" (as I have since called it) - I officially have the Airstream bug. My goal is to join you all in October for the next campout. Finger crossed!!!

Fingers crossed for you. It is Airstream Heaven and it's hard to shake that "bug". Best group of people you will ever meet! See you next year!

[sandlapper]

Hey.....I know you!!!

Good to hear from everyone, even though I am late to the party. I am once again in wind down/catch up mode, and always running behind.

The rally went better than I could have ever hoped for, thanks to the many folks that came and pitched in. And remember, a smiling, happy face is just as important as someone stirring a pot or sweeping the floor.

We had 168 rigs, about 325 people, and one heck of a fine time.

We will crank it all back up in October for Alumalina. Look for a new thread soon.

Many thanks to everyone that came, you are the best. Luvya all. John

Hello there, Logan, just John here.

We call it aluminitus, and there is no cure, only treatment: more aluminum.

You will find the Airstream family is like no other, one big happy bunch, eager to share and help.

So glad you stopped by, we look forward to having you back with us in October. With or w/o an Airstream. But hoping it will be with one.

Let us know if we can help. John

More fun in the sun.
