You may need to bring water "Y"'s, extra stinky slinkys, some of the stinky water drains are above ground be prepared to raise your stinky hose.

That is a GREAT point! If you are in the short section of FHU sites where the sewer inlets are 4-6 inches above ground level, using a sewer support is "mandatory" to keep the waste water going where it needs to go.

Your point is well taken Sye.

I know this would probably be a nightmare for the technicians and repairmen, but I wish they would group us by home state rather than brand or club. This would give folks a chance to meet fellow home state FROGs and perhaps help increase campouts and other local FROG rallies. Just my 2 cents and I hope this doesn’t make Bob (F.R.O.G.) cringe too much.

That might be a LATE night meeting,with ALL the things (Tours,Seminars,Eating,Drinking,ECT) it would be a Hard thing to assemble all FRF members at once? Youroo!! PS and you sure as Hell CANT HEAR inside the Main Eating Area!

Well, I hear 1/2 of them can be found with the PPST, and the other half at the Tiki Hut, so it shouldn't be hard to get most of them together.

In all seriousness though, if you want they'll add your forum name to your name tag. I've meet a few last year that way, just in the chow lines, in the ice cream line, or wandering around the park. Heck, I even spotted Turbs, but his missus was leading him away before I got a chance to introduce myself.

Also, last year somebody started a thread where people would post their site number once they were parked, in case other Frogs wanted to find them.

Yes, it would be nice to meet others from the same state; however, it's nice to compare notes with those that have the same brand.

What is the cancellation policy for tours? If I sign up and pay for a tour, and need to cancel what is the latest I can do so and get a refund? Can I give my tour to someone else?

Last two rallies, the Phat Phrogs threw a "pot luck" dinner for forum members, but it quickly became so popular it was opened to anyone who wanted to come at it was HUGE.

I am thinking we could try to limit this year's pot luck to just forum members just out of self preservation!

I will talk to Bob and maybe we could abscond with the bandstand area one night for a pot luck picnic for forum members. Maybe we could roll it right from the free ice cream sundaes!

I like the idea.... but the mods aren't sponsoring it!

I think only one or two forum mods are going.
Most all of the Phrogs will be there I think.

To my knowledge, RVChicky, Turbs, BombDoc and I won't be there. Don't know about AquaMan.

Tried getting message to him. His box is full. There are a couple of us that would like to register for tours before they are full, but are afraid of conflicts with plant tours and work to be done. Oh well....
