Does anyone know if there is one scheduled for the motorhomes at some point? Thank you for any information.
While there are a few Forest River brands that have their own clubs and hold events for just those brands, any event sponsored and subsidized by FROG is open to any Forest River RV. We specifically refuse to hold events at a motorhome-only resort, for example, so that no one is excluded.

About two-thirds of the units that we build are towables -- fifth wheels, travel trailers, toy haulers, pop-ups, etc. -- so you're likely to see more towables than motorhomes, but any Forest River brand or model is welcome.

Come join hosts Gerry & Linda Reviea at beautiful Golden Village Palms in Hemet, California for the 2016 FROG Rally in California, May 26th to the 31st.
Contact the park directly at 866-477-6154 to reserve your site at the special FROG rate.
GVP is located at 3600 Florida Ave. in Hemet, with 1000 full hookup sites on 60 acres.
Last year was a blast and some took advantage of the wine country, museums, casinos, shopping in Palm Springs, the Aerial Tram to the top of Mount San Jacinto, Indoor Skydiving and much, much more.
The tour of the Forest River Plant in Hemet was a real bonus and everyone who attended learned how a trailer was put together. Manpower, not machines.
We have social sessions, Pot-Lucks and Forest River will supply us with a BBQ dinner from Dickey's here in Hemet.

When you make your reservations, please send an email to GerryReviea@yahoo.com so he can add you to the list of attendees.

Hope to see you soon!

Thursday, Palm Springs Street Fair (45 minutes away), Meet'N'Greet happy hour in the clubhouse 4 pm.
Friday, Factory tour, happy hour in the clubhouse 4 pm, potluck around 5:30 or 6. (bring something to feed 6-8)
Saturday, happy hour 4 pm, BBQ Dinner by Sweet Baby Jane's 5:30, entertainment (maybe) raffle.
Sunday, happy hour & appetizers 4 pm.
Monday?
There is plenty to see and do here. Swimming pools, hot tubs, sauna, pool room, museums, horse shoe pits, pickle ball court, and in-park games with fellow FROGs, etc.
Rick and Dottie Ness are bringing Washers, Ladder Golf and Bean Bag Baseball.
Plenty to do with fellow FROGs.

Thanks for thinking about us. We are all well.
Too many things going on. Mid June we plan on heading to California for a few weeks then hooking up with friends in Yellowstone for the 4th of July week then onto Goshen for the FROG rally. Then, Memphis, Dallas/Ft Worth and maybe Galveston TX. Should be home some time in September. LOL
I figure I should have about 10,000 more miles on my Georgetown by fall.

Have fun and say hi to all.
John
