Whitch site will have a sorta community fire pit?  Anyone know?

Thanks,

WoodGlue

Sites 28 & 29 are right next to each other and in an open area. The table at site 29 also is not chained down so we may be able to move it if needed. Between the two fire pits in that area we should be good or if we move the table we could probably get around the one in site 29.

Had a nice, relaxing trip up to Collins Lake this weekend. The lake level was down and the weather was cool but the DW limited out on trout (as usual)!  Met up with Loanshark and friends (really nice folks).  Compared notes on our Lance trailers and overall had a very relaxing weekend.

Truly wish we could make it to the Northern CA LAO rally in January but, due to prior commitments, we won't be able to. Did see one other Lance TC at Collins and a couple on the road on the way home.

Thanks Kevin,

A communal firepit is a thing of beauty when camping with new friends.  Gives you a chance to sit around and talk about fishing, camping trips, the days activities and of course, our beloved Lance TC and TT's!

This calendar thread is a sneaky one as it doesn't show up in the "recent" threads or posts column.

Absolutely a communal firepit area.  Sounds good to me!  

Hello,

My husband & I just purchased our Lance Camper 1191 this weekend and have recently become LOA members!  This forum stuff is all new to me, but I'll give it a shot!

Anyways, I was excited to see that there will be a rally in January 2014 at Lake Solano Park.. this is great because it's near where we live!  The only bad thing is that we have a conflict in the dates.  I work in the sales industry and I'll be away at a trade show.  Although we have friends that we always go camping with (in fact, we'll be in Bodega Bay over the Thanksgiving holiday, we also owned a trailer before we bought the camper.) it would be fun to branch out and meet other folks.  So, I hope when the next rally comes around, we'll be able to join you guys... this sure sounds like fun!

Hi Daphne -

Again, welcome to LOA!  

Sorry to hear that you can't make it.  If Randy is free that weekend we would love to have him join us!

Here is the official thread with all of the information:

Just received confirmation we will have Lance swag for the rally, hats, mugs, keychains, etc.  yahoo!  

Now I just need to hit up CW for some gift cards, swag, etc.

Way to go Ann!

Wow, we are the little rally that could like the little train... I think I can, I think I can and now look where we are!   Awesome!  

Is it time to start a conversation on a a schedule and suggestions on communal meals?  There was a conversation on a breakfast but not sure what else has been discussed.  

if we have some suggestions, I will put together an itinerary to post in a common area.  

Friday afternoon/evening everyone will be arriving and setting up so an easy potluck of food and beverages would probably work best. 

Saturday morning might be the ideal time for the big breakfast so the folks arriving on Friday late can join and meet and greet.   

Activities: mod tour.  An opportunity to tour and discuss, share, and show off your mods. 

Birding.  I am an amateur birder and would love to have some fellow birders go on a walk to see what we can find in the park other than peacocks. :-) 

kayak/canoe - we are bringing our kayaks, they are touring kayaks so anyone is welcome to try them out and if you bring your own or bring a canoe, this is a nice little lake with flat water and lots of birds and wildlife to see.  

Fishing -  I  (ann) would love a quick lesson on fly fishing if there is anyone interested in sharing.  

Scavenger hunt - if there are kids in the group, we can put together a scavenger hunt for the kids. Pine cones, feathers, acorn, etc.  

I will keep an eye on the tread and start the list of times and activities.

Ann -

I believe that this calendar thread confuses everyone.

If you get a moment maybe you could copy-n-paste your post above into a post in the main rally thread?  

I have been updating the first post in the main rally thread (as opposed to this calendar thread):

https://community.lanceowners.org/top...y-1-17-14-to-1-19-14

Thank goodness you have it all figured out. I am always on my ipad so it is not as easy to navigate. Let me see if I can copy and paste it.  

Took me a while too Ann.

This calendar thread really is more annoying than anything, but it's the only way for our rally to show in the upcoming LOA rally's column..  New posts don't even show up as recent posts.

Hi Jeff,

We also purchase our Lance 2285 this month.  i had a class C but sold that for this TT and am rather new to towing.  So far its been a real learning experience.  We're getting antsy about taking it out So I started surfing and came across your rally.  We would like to meet up with you guys and spend the weekend getting to know everyone and do some activities.  I'm trying to reserve #18 right now.  Can you give me some ideas on what to bring and contribute to the potluck and other eats.  

Thanks,

Allen and Jill and two little dogs
