We are in a quandary.. This would be the last year for us to get factory service on our 2018 unit unless they extend it to next year. My wife can't go because she would have to self-isolate for 14 days after we get back which doesn't help the paycheck.


A lot to think about in the next week.

The rally is not about getting things fix its about meeting folks and having a good time. Its just icing on the cake should you need repairs. Later RJD

Yes, but when you have a chronic problem that the factory attempted to fix once and it failed again, you want it done right and hopefully, permanently.



Having operated my own Brand specific forum with organized rallies, I know how much I enjoyed meeting people and getting to know them. But again, this year, nothing will be the same, even the Rally...

2020 FROG International Rally
August 18-22, 2020
"Let's Get Ready to Rally!"
TM


We are excited to announce that we will be hosting the 2020 FROG International Rally in Goshen, IN from August 18-22!

However, in compliance with Governor Holcomb’s “Back on Track” Executive Order, we will be making some changes in the timing and the size of this year’s rally.

The 2020 FROG Rally will kick off with dinner on Tuesday, August 18, and will run through breakfast on Saturday, August 22. Vendor and seminar days will be Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

We are setting our attendance limit at 125 RVs.

The 2020 FROG Rally will include 4 nights of full-hookup camping (Tu,W,Th,F); 3 dinners (Tu,W,F); 4 breakfasts (W,Th,F,Sa); two nights of live entertainment; seminars; vendors; Forest River RV display; yard sale / swap meet; ice cream; and more.

Because of distancing requirements on tour buses and at many of our destinations, and because some of the destinations are not expected to have opened, we will NOT be taking optional bus tours of Amish Country this year. We are not yet sure of the status of factory tours.

As in prior years, limited factory service will be available. Original owners of Forest River RVs in the current ('21) and three prior model years ('20, '19, '18) can request up to two items to be addressed. All service work must go through the Rally Service Center, and all requests are subject to approval by Forest River. Following registration, we'll send the link to the service request form to those registered.

Outstanding recall items will also be addressed, so we'll be asking that you provide your 17-digit VIN when you register.

Registration will open on Friday, June 19, at 12:00 noon EDT at www.frogrally.com. The fees for the 2020 FROG Rally are:

RV with 2 Adults $450
RV with 1 Adult $350
Additional Adult Age 12 or Over $100
Additional Child Under Age 12 Free
Early Camping Nights (Begins Saturday) $25 / night

This weekend we'll be updating the information currently on the FROG website. Please check there starting on Monday for more information.

Our first priority, as it was when we had to cancel several events this spring, will be the safety of our FROG members, vendors, company personnel, and everyone else engaged in putting on the FROG Rally. We will adhere to all requirements and suggestions of the Elkhart County Health Department, the State of Indiana, and the CDC in an effort to ensure everyone's well-being, and we ask for everyone's cooperation in that effort. And now,

"Let's Get Ready to Rally!"TM

Are pets permitted? The web site is silent on that and we travel with our two older dogs.

Thanks,

Yes, pets are allowed on the fairgrounds. Just have to keep them on a leash when walking them around.

RJ, I was thinking the Feds were finally on to you and you were changing your name, then I saw you changed it back. False alarm.

Everyone is lying low because of the limited number of spots. We're hoping this will keep the number of people applying at the registration open down.

No. We see him on FaceTime more than in person because we live too far from him.

With a max of 125 units, parking team is going to be scaled way back, and everybody gets FHU. The temporary water/electric sites won't even be laid out.
