sure many of you will find this a dumb question, but is Tammy and Reace some of those at that head table on the platform ?
might be nice if all escape employees present took a Escape family pic..nice to be able to put a face to some we communicate via email and phone..

Yes, the younger couple is Tammy and Reace and the older couple to their left are her parents

**Donna D.** · 05-28-2016, 04:52 PM

Tammy's parents names are Dennis and Marlene. They've attended the Oregon Gathering with T&R several times. Dennis delivered Ten Forward to me in Sumas

cpaharley2008 · 05-28-2016, 04:55 PM

Yes, he is Reace's right hand, so to speak....

An amazing pot luck dinner tonight - virtually every dish we tried, we liked - and that's a first. Tammy and Reace once again held a great event.

142 Escape Trailers in attendance, and a few SOBs from folks with an Escape in order as well. 247 registered attendees. The corporate sponsorships were so good that every single rally attended received a door prize. The 50/50 drawing split over $1000. Several people won prizes for completing the Escape Bingo card, in which you had to visit other attendees trailers in order to fill in the card questions. Many attendees said this was the best rally yet.

Thanks for the pictures and reports.
I got to leave my camera ( and the instruction manual ) in the trailer and sit next to my wife instead of taking pictures. I am truly a retired photographer now.

It's not quite over yet but it's so much fun we are excited about next year already. We met so many friendly faces but kept forgetting to ask for their user names here.

Hopefully I will be able to reconnect the faces with names. We are the family who have been playing badminton at our campsite.

Yes, it is very important to associate the user name and the real name, having to remember 2 names is twice as hard.....

Robert, thanks for taking the time to take and post all these photos. For those of us who wish we were there, it's great to at least see all the fun.

Thank you Eric. It's kind of hard to remember to document what you're doing when all you're doing is having fun, but I'm glad you found the few photos and comments helpful.

Maybe we need an official rally recorder. If he can keep his feet, I nominate Glenn....

We had a great time at the rally; it is the last time our Casita will visit Osoyoos under our ownership. We met so many new friends, but there were so many we did not get to meet. All in all, it was a great experience for us and we look forward to great adventures traveling in our 2017 21' Escape when we pick it up next January!

cpaharley2008 · 05-30-2016, 06:12 PM

neat picture....

Yesterday, we had a nice dinner with some of the folks staying at the campground after the rally. We ate at Convivia Bistro Cuisine on 74th Ave. in Osoyoos.

Hi: reddog2673... Thanks for all the pic's you posted. I recognize a few people there with you. Wish we could have been there too!!!
Just finished "The Last Supper" in our old kitchen. Rip out starts tomorrow so we will be camping on the front lawn for the next month and a half. Alf

I see Craig and Josie, the new owners of BlackJack there, this must be a group of old Casita owners, correct?

Fred... Thanks for posting. This was our first Escape rally and we had a blast. It was great to meet you and Dora and we idolize you for full timing in your Casita! Your new 21 will be a treat!! Dinner was great and I think everyone enjoyed what they ordered!

Thank you Robert and Yolanda for going to the wine tour and leaving Coco with us! We enjoyed babysitting her. What a sweetie she is.
We so enjoyed meeting so many people and connecting faces to names and especially would like to thank Tammy and Reace for putting on such a wonderful rally. They are the best you can ask for and they have a wonderful staff. They all, including Dennis made the rounds and talked to all the attendees asking about any questions you had about your trailer!

We also met so many new friends that I think we will continue to be in contact with. We have your info and you have ours!
May we meet on the road again!
Happy trails to you all!!

Carla Jean · 05-30-2016, 09:44 PM

Fred,
Most wunderful photos. It was lovely to meet you and Dora. You are the most excited new owners we have met. It was palpable...! We wish you many years of travel in your new Escape. Hopefully we will get down to my ole state of Texas someday to say 'Hi ya'll'.

That was good dinner there too. Lisa and a few others had the Duck Comfit, which was fabulous. My pasta was very good too.

I most certainly enjoyed meeting you and your wife, as well as so many other Escape owners for the first time. It was also wonderful to once again see many that I have previously met too. Attending the rally is such a great extension of the community we have here, and it is always better to be able to put a faced to a name, and chat in person.

As much chatting as I did, there just is not enough time to spend as much as I would have liked with so many that attended.

I gotta say, everyone was very welcoming of this SOB in his SOB.
