Just got our reservation in! Two years ago, this rally started it all for my wife & I. Within 10 days of seeing CPAHarley's 19' Escape, we had a brand new GMC Acadia in our driveway as the TV. 5 more days & we had a deposit on our 19' Escape. We missed the rally last year as we were on the road from April 26 - July 2 bringing our Escape home! Looking forward to our first "official rally" as owners of our camper.

Hi: All... We're booked into this rally in Apr. We will be on our way north from Florida so may look a little worse for wear. Our 5.0TA "Escape Hatch II" will, as always, look it's best. Alf

Jon's pies are fabulous. Let's see I've had them in Canada twice, Pennsylvania twice, and hopefully Tennessee twice. Looking forward to it Jon and seeing you there....

So far, it looks like we've got the following Escapes registered to go to Townsend: 2 19's (2013-2014), 3 21's (2014), 1 5.0TA (2014) and 1 17B (2011) Escape has done well on the east coast since we were at the Townsend Egg Rally in 2013!

It can't be twice for Tennessee; this will be my first time at the rally. I've tried for it a number of times, but something always got in the way.

You are correct Jon, it's just that thinking about how those pies are so good, my memory has become fogged. Safe travels.

We just reserved site 68 for three nights, we arrive on the 16th and leave on the 19th. They were all out of full-service sites so we are roughing it with water and electric only, (but are on a waiting list for full hook-ups in case of a cancellation).

We attended this rally in 2010 - it was where we saw the only Escape trailer, (a 19'), we had ever seen before ordering our own, last year.

Campground is full but there are usually a few that cancel so get on the waiting list.

Or you could stay at the campground next door and walk over to the rally.
