Marcia and I are traveling toward the Mid West Truck Camper Rally this year and then headed across Canada toward Maine this year prior to heading home. We hope to attend a Lance factory tour next year.

Having lived on the US Canadian Border (Blaine) and traveled through Canada to Alaska in and out of Canada/US, it depends on the border crossing you get, the agent, etc. You can go to https://bwt.cbp.gov/ and look at the border crossing wait times to get an idea for where you want to cross and the time it will take. Enjoy your first Lance Rally, wish we could make it.

Our plans are to ferry from Vancouver to the island (Horseshoe bay to Nanaimo), entering Canada a day ahead so customs shouldn't be an issue the day of. Then to make the ferry cost worth it we depart 30+ days later from Victoria to Port Angles, staying the last few days in Victoria and taking the early ferry. Research has shown us there is ample must see locations (reservations are made) from north to south and east to west on the island. Looking forward to the trip!

Starting the last preparations for our journey to the rally. Any recommendations on do's and don't bring with you (food, beverages, gear....quantities.). Is there a good border crossing web site (US to Canada) to be sure we don't have to donate to the local land fill. Looking forward to our first rally!

Some items for your consideration: 1) We will do a meet and greet with adult beverages of your choosing, snackies and conversation on Wed the 23rd at my campsite (site #60). I will have two pop up tents in case of rain or too much sun, and some tables but please bring your chairs and anything you would like to share. I will have a few bottles of BC wines, and ciders for your tasting pleasure! Beer...
