We have been to the Perry Rally before and had a wonderful time but are not able to attend this year. We are thinking about attending the the other Rally Ohio in July. Will this event be equal in size and content as Perry? Seminars, attendance levels,vendors, etc, etc ?????

We were planning on going to both this year, but, at over $300.00 for handicap/electric we decided to take a chance on the Ohio ralley as it may be smaller and easier for us to get around. The Perry rallies are huge but also hard for us to get around.
On the other hand, one more price increase I'll just quit going to their rallies.

"Generally" speaking, I think the summer Conventions are slightly larger. This may be due to the fact that the governing board meeting is held during and each chapter tries to be represented there. Also, more people vacation in summer.

FMCA has been to Perry so many times I think some folks will not attend, in favor of going to some place new like Bowling Green U.

Why don't you stay at a nearby campground with full hook-ups and attend the rally on a Passport? At the Perry rally, we'll be staying at a close campground for $30 a night and using the Passport at $119. That's $239 total and we'll have 50 amp electric, water, & sewer. We'll park in the handicap slots right in front of the entrance.

I don't know about Ohio, but at Perry you must book early to get the campground of your choice. The campground that we are staying in would not take reservations until 8/1. They were booked by the 8/2.

We just made reservations for the BGSU Rally .Both my daughters went there and one is there now.The school has a big football parking lot and student parking lots .We have never been to this big of rally . We have went to a state rally and wondering if you guys have any ideas for a first timer.We live one hr away and are looking forward to going but wish I did not have to burn a weeks vacation time to go.Wish they would have it over a weekend so it would be easer for us working people to come.
