Thank you to all who worked so hard made this rally a success! The service team did an awesome job working on our rig everyday Monday through Friday. The parking crew did a great job finding everyone a home. Frog Bob and Cindy - kudos to pulling off such a grand event. I highly recommend the boat, bison and bbq tour! I also recommend taking a factory tour and if you can, go to the pdi department tour as well. So much fun. Made tons of new friends and put faces to forum friends. Safe travels home to all!!!

Thank you Bob and Cindy!!! Fabulous rally....waaaaayyyyyyy beyond my expectations. So well organized. Also a big thanks to all of the volunteers and especially Forest River and the hard working, professional, courteous employees that helped us all out. This forum is what attracted me to Forest River. But the people and company's products and commitment to customer satisfaction has been and is what will continue to keep me buying and preaching the word about Forest River. Hands down, best rally that I've ever attended. I met so many nice people this year and look forward to seeing all and meeting new one's again next year. Safe travels to all.

BTW, the Cabarrus County Sheriff brought the old Dodge back, said the owner of the ditch that they use rejected it.
Well, Glenn finally got and finally got parked without hitting Bob's or my camper or Mardy's Caddy. So now we're still waiting on BombDoc and Ms. April to change their mind and come up. Still have room for another trailer on the drivel.

Want to join the group thanking Bob and Cindy for a wonderful event, also was part of the crew that was looking for the meteor shower, had a "Turbs" sighting instead. Also, saw the Youroo express going by in Van Wert, Ohio. Ran out of an Arby's to flag him down. No such luck, he was moving on. Glad no critters ran out in front of him. No mercy.

We also want to thank Bob and Cindy and Bob's brother(can't remember his name, almost senior moment) for the great rally. Changed our view on rallies. We will be back next year.

Made it home safely just shy of 8 hours. We also made it with our 8289 WS with Amish Road Apples intact on the front landing gear. Glenn, My Island was also intact!!

Thank you Forest River for all the work, the new pin box worked great all the way home! Hope everyone who has made a big contribution takes a little down time now. Kudos to Bob and Cindy and Mike as well. I know the work you have put in is appreciated by all that attended!

Thanks to Bob and Cindy for a great Rally. Also thanks to Bob and Randy from XLR. They really did a bang up job on ours. Also went on two tours that were also good. Will be back next year as we met some great folks.

Thanks to FROG Bob & Cindy

Bob & Cindy, Thank you for a most enjoyable time at this years Int'l Rally. You went that extra mile to ensure each attendee not only could receive the outstanding FR Service but that he & she had the best time while in Goshen. The tours, seminars, vendor visits and the fellowship was nothing less than outstanding. Thank you for the many many unseen sacrifices you two made on behalf of all us FROGs.

Hope to see you both at the Texas Frog Rally in Kerrville in October.

Travel safely & enjoy the journey!

Drove 560 miles today. I do not recommend driving through the mountains of West Virginia Overnighting in wytheville VA. Surprise, there's another Sabre bring pulled with a white truck parked behind us. They weren't rally goers though.

I hope nobody had any damage in Friday night's storm. I know everybody was helping each other get awnings in and flags down quickly. We barely got our neighbor's awning in. It started to go vertical but we caught it just in time. His motor jammed but backing it out and trying again worked. Fortunately ours was already in since we had done much of our travel prep the night before. Man the wind had the trailer rocking.

The fair grounds have thinned out and we expect more to head out today, there are a few of us here until the beginning of this week with appointments at the factories, even after the rally Forest River is helping us. Great job Bob & Cindy on the rally and thanks for letting us be a part of it, looking fo9rward to next year and also volunteering as we know ALL the work that is involved and the help you need. Once again great job!!!!

Do you think DH will be more in a hurry to get the poles made and installed?

It was on the frog website

FROG - Forest River Owners Group

Not everyone showed up. The Reese tech broke his foot. Rockwood techs replaced my pin box, they consulted with Reese and said the bushing was faulty. Also it should turn freely.

Turbs threw an extra set out of the golf cart as he raced by. As Lou said, a minion from Pennsylvania and camping in a flagstaff installed the brackets and poles for me. Turbs supervised the pole installation.
