Just wondering who is going this year to Essex Jct. VT. We will be there.

For the first time since owning a Newmar coach, I will not be at the rally. I have a commitment to the Gkids and that takes first place. We'll be on the "other" coast this summer.

We will be there! Looking forward to seeing some of the folks we met when we were just starting our full timing travels, last year at the rally. We've learned a lot since then, still more to learn. Newmar folks are the greatest!

but the distance from this coast to VT is just too much.
Of course the fuel prices had to go up. Do they ever come down again?

You only need a Newmar and a membership in the NKK.
It's just too far for us this year. Hopefully next year it will be at the Westcoast or a bit closer

Have fun

Doe anybody have any numbers on how many will be attending?

Hi TW,
You are in luck. The 2012 International Rally will be in Gillette, Wyoming.

GaryKD · 05-20-2011, 02:16 PM

Hi ktm500mx,
The International is similar to the Tampa Super show in that attending coaches will have 30 AMP electric. I'm not sure about water. Sewer will be a single pump out on a specific day. You'll need to leave the utility bay unlocked.

The International has evening entertainment, meals and vendors. Also the International has optional tours that enhance one's appreciation of the area. The Tampa Super show has evening entertainment and many, many more vendors. The Tampa Super show is about selling RVers something more than what they have. The International is about having fun and fellowship with other Newmar owners.

Your post mentions you attend the Tampa Super Show. Have we met? Have you attended the iRV2 social?

Hi Dennis a little slow on my part..see you there..yes there will be water...Burlington is home of University of Vermont and other schools so has plenty of restaurants and brew pubs also many miles of hiking and biking trails..or just drive yourself around the lake..it is a pretty area..
