Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

Hello Everyone,

I am just curious...if Reace and I plan an Escape rally for the end of May maybe the first week of June, say somewhere near Merritt, would anyone be interested in coming?Other fiberglass trailer owners are more than welcome to attend. I am just beginning to look at campgrounds in the area but before I call anyone I would like to have a rough idea of the number of people who might be interested in coming.

I am thinking some wine, s'mores, potluck dinner ... and a great big campfire

Depending on the response I get, I will post more ideas/thoughts.

Tammy

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

This sounds wonderful! If it would be closer to the Midwest, my daughter and I would be in, but as is the distance is too big for the little vacation I get... Maybe some day we start a rally here in this area, who knows...! :

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

Evie & I would be interested and your plan is close to Kamloops which is a plus for us. A 13c doesn't take up much room. Keep us posted, great Idea

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

Looks like that is my stretch to work weekends--from the middle of May until the weekend of the 19 of June I am working at least one day of the weekend...

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

We would be interested for sure! But would need more details as we need to book out holidays. Have you checked out Logan lake Municipal campground? Nice place with, or without hookups.

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

Speaking of Logan Lake, buddy Keath and I have spent many a May long weekend in Logan Lake, sheltering in the pub, as the wind, rain and snow pummel the landscape. Can't remember one trip that time of year where the weather cooperated.

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

There is a chance we might make the trek, hard to know yet. It sure sounds like fun.

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

We have twice stayed at Moon Shadows just outside of Merritt on the Cold Water river. (First pic). Make sure you have a pressure reduction valve for your water. Not sure how many full hook-up sites, but it's quite a large, yet well treed campground. Five minutes to the nearest latte.

Second pic is Harmon Lake in the Kane Lakes chain, about half an hour to Merritt. No services. We've stayed there several times.

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

We would really like to. Last weekend in May or first in June would work. Subject to change at this time, though.

The last weekend in May or the first weekend in June get our vote!

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

Last weekend in May, Sat. 29, Sun. 30 includes Memorial Day, Monday May 31 which might make it easier for U.S. Escapees to attend. Weekend before that is May 22, 23, 24 ( Victoria Day in Canada ) and likely to accommodate sled dogs.

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

We're contemplating an Alaska trip so the timing might work out for us.. if you don't mind a non-escape trailer in your midst..

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

Hi Jeff,

There is always room for non-fiberglass units with us...we just may have to put you in the outer edges of our circle

Just joking we would love the opportunity to visit with you and the rest of the family again.

Re: Anyone Interested in an Escape Rally?

Tammy,

Are you going to set a date and location? I think people need that to make a commitment.
