Will be our first. Tried w/o much success to get rally info so waited for "rally packet". It arrived. No info - no schedule of events. There were 3 breakfast tickets - did I spend $125. for 3 breakfasts?
Why isn't there any info on the FMCA website? Someone needs to see the Texas Boomer site below as to how a rally should be advertised.

It's probably a rally hosted by one of the FMCA chapters or "areas", not the FMCA national organization itself.

I found it on the FMCA Area rally page, the South Central Area Rally. http://www.fmca.com/chapters/area-rallies.html

There would normally be more rally info on the South Central Area's own website, http://www.sca-fmca.com/ but it looks like they are in the midst of revamping it and don't have much there.

For $125 you probably got the parking site and three breakfasts, plus general admission to the seminars and some evening entertainment. I don't see that particular price listed on the registration form, though.

Gary,
Thanks for the reply.. Looks like you found the same amount of info I did - nothing. Actually there is an additional charge to park in a "lot".

Yeah - every place that normally would have info was "under construction".

Typically FMCA area rallies are quite good for professional entertainment, seminars and shopping (vendors and RV dealers). More of a convention atmosphere than a camping experience, but each area has their own style and I've never been to a South-Central Area Rally.

Sent $125 with no information beforehand? heck, send me $125 and we'll treat you to free parking, grilling out by the pool, and a dolphin cruise at the beach

directions to the house will cost extra
