Family Campers & RVer's Retiree Rally

We spent the last week at the Ladson Exchange Park Fairgrounds in Ladson, South Carolina. Ladson is northwest of Charleston. There were over 300 RVer's including at least 2 tenters from as far away as Canada and there were 10 families from Colorado at this retiree rally. We spent the time doing things like playing games of all sorts, programs, eating, evening entertainment and meeting lots of new people. The rally had two evening dinners included, also a red hat luncheon and these were all catered by a local restaurant. The entertainment included gospel singers, a blue grass group, an Elvis impersonator and our own FCRV talent show. The rally was a week long and ended with a international parade of states and provinces that had attended the rally. Each state or province would parade across the stage and recited a cheer or song representing their state or province while making as much noise as possible. It was definitely a noise parade. A person had a really hard time hearing anything else since it was indoors. And of course that is the time that Tiffany called from Samoa. I had to exit the building to hear her and she opted to call back on Monday night.

We had a very good time and met famlies from Colorado, Canada and Illinois. I do believe that we will be doing this again next year which will be in Canton, Texas in March 2011.

Next stop is Nashville, Tennesse.
