We took delivery and toured the plamt 2 days later. Touing this factory confirmed that we made the right decision. A must see, if you haven't done so.

Definitely on my 'to do' list.

I'd like to see the flagstaff plant to being previous flagstaff owners.

I'M hoping that there will be a Georgetown tour. I have done it once but there are a number of things a forgot to check.

[WWTTA]

This is our first rally as well. We are also interested in a Flagstaff tour. We didn't see that tour listed on the list of events...how and when can we sign up? We are really looking forward to the Rally!

We're first time FR owners and are looking forward to the Goshen outing as well. We are have a sign made now for the front of our camper that will let people know who we are and where we are from. We hope people will feel welcomed to stop and chat at our campsite.

There will be a lot of rigs at the rally but if I see a sign with John from Russia on it, I'll stop by and say "hi."

Sounds like a great idea. We will watch for the sign!

Turbs, Could the PPST do something like set a speed record with 6 phroggies on a golph cart crossing lily pads? It could be a world record.

This site is very helpful. This is also our first rally. We have a 2013 Flagstaff lite 5th wheel. It is at the trailer hospital because my husband rammed it into the garage. $10,00 worth of damage. The target date for delivery to us is July 19. Can't wait to attend the rally. This time when we load our 5th wheel I don't plan on unloading it again. We are looking forward to meeting new people and the factory tour.

[Oakman]

Sorry to hear about your mishap with the garage. Hopefully all will be well by the target date for delivery.
I'm sure you'll enjoy the Goshen rally and there will be plenty of other RV'ers to meet. I found the factory tour we took last year fascinating.

There is plenty of things to do in the Goshen area on your own. Just in case you missed out on one of the tours, A great flea market in Shipshewana. Don't forget to visit the city of Shipshewana also, much to see. Last year my
DW and I made many trips each day to just tour the country side. Stopping at many places to sightsee the local culture. Many local Amish stores to visit and shop. There is a great store just to the right at the entrance of the flea market in Shipshewana, you will not come away empty handed, believe me!
Elkhart is also a great place to visit. Upon checking in make sure you go to the campground office to get a map of the area for local restaurants and things to see. Before you know it, the week will be ending and you will have met new and old friends, next door neighbors that you will become great friends with. We know, for we met two great couples from Canada that we have stayed in touch with and visited at other rallies for they have become very close friends.

Don't feel left out if you think that you are new to the greatest rally that you will ever attend. Before you leave, you will be asking when is the next "FROG INTERNATIONAL RALLY".

So look at each and every name tag for those you have met on the "FORUM"
so you can get a grip on your friends and fellow "FOREST RIVER OWNER". They are great people (EVEN OLE COOT) for they will all be there.

So until we meet in Goshen, I will be looking for you for sure.

Don't be spreading false rumors about me DB. My poles did mess your awning up you remember.

[Oakman]

Don't forget the RV Hall of Fame/Museum is in Elkhart and worth a visit for every RVer.

[BOBFIDY]

Also not too far away Notre Dame U and "TOUCHDOWN JESUS"

SHIPSHEWANA...flea market...mostly (sorry to say) made in CHINA..stuff and i use the word" stuff" politely..

Oakman: Did F.R.O.G. say some time back about an event that was going on at the RV Hall of Fame/Museum during the time of the Rally. That was going be very congested there?
