Wondering how many have been to the Family Reunion's that have been held in Smith Center.

We have been there in 2003 and 2006.....really fun time.

Obviously, we haven't because we don't yet have our Excel. Am I correct that these Family Reunions are only held every 3 years? If so, that means that the next one won't be until sometime in 2009. We'll certainly try to make the next one!

Yes, they are only every 3 years, but WHAT A SHOW!!!!!
There were over 40 units just from the Nebraska Club at this last reunion.
I can't remember for sure but I think about 500 units from all over in attendence.

Maybe in the "in between" years you folks can make plans to have a reunion at the iRV2 National Rally for that year....The '07 Rally will be held at America's Best Campground in Branson.

We have been to 4 or 5 of them, I think all but one, but not for sure. It is a great time and Peterson Ind. does a superb job of putting in on. It officially starts on a Wed and ends Sun and PI has the days filled with fun and informative things to do. They have displays and seminars along with the fun activities. The town of Smith Center along with PI are very gracious hosts, it is a great atmosphere. Company people are very evident and approachable for questions or just to talk about Excels. The factory tour is good. Overall it is a great time for Excel family and PI puts a lot off effort into the event. Wouldn't miss one if I could at all help it.

If anyone has digital photos of this years reunion, I would like to post on iRV2.com for those that could not attend to view. Captions would be nice, but not required.
