The Fall Mid-West Toyota RV Owners Rally will be in New Albany, Indiana -- October 3-5, 2014.



Please note! Reservations are needed by July 31 to hold your spot!



This RV Park is only holding 12 sites for us for our rally -- that's all!



If you want to camp with us, you must MAIL IN your deposit check for $32.10 right away. (If more than 2 people are camping with you, add $5 per person.)



If you need to cancel your reservation, your deposit can be refunded if someone else in our group needs your spot -- which is quite likely.



After July 31 any unreserved sites being held for us will be released to the public.



Yes, this deadline for reservations is relatively early compared to some of our rallies.



If you are considering joining us, you need to send your check to them now. Use their form, printable from their website (see details below), including your arrival and departure dates. (Early arrival on Thursday is fine.)



BE SURE TO PUT ON THE FORM THAT YOU ARE WITH THE TOYOTA RV GROUP!



Then please call us to say you have sent in your check and will be joining us.



See you there,


Tika and Tom


coming from Illinois in our '91 Itasca

Now here is the complete invitation:



The Fall Mid-West Rally this year will be held at the Harvest Homecoming Festival in New Albany, Indiana, across the river from Louisville, KY. This is a huge street festival with all the expected activities -- food, crafts, entertainment, and a 200-unit parade on Saturday at noon.



Louisville, KY has multiple additional attractions as well: The Kentucky Derby Museum, Derby Flea Market, MegaCavern Underground Zip Line, Louisville Slugger (Baseball Bat) Factory, and more. See the links section below.



Because this location is a bit farther south than previous Mid-West rallies, we are hoping to attract more Toyota RV owners that haven't been close enough to attend previously. If that is you, consider yourself invited!



The Rally dates are Friday, October 3 to Sunday October 5, but you can arrive early on Thursday if you would like to see more of the festival, and stay until Monday if you like.



We will be staying at Add-More RV Park just southwest of the junction of Interstate 265 and Interstate 65, about 7 miles from the Harvest Festival. (See Directions and map links below.)



Saturday morning will will have "Open House" for those that want to tour each other's RVs, and see what owners have done to personalize them. Saturday afternoon is a time to visit the Harvest Festival. We suggest "car-pooling (RV-pooling)" because of limited parking in the downtown festival area. Saturday night, we have reserved the "Barn" at the RV Park for our potluck dinner. Afterwards we will light a campfire for marshmallows (weather permitting).



Sunday morning we will have mentoring sessions for any newbie owners that would like to learn more about Toyota RVing. At noon we plan to caravan with all our RVs to a local restaurant for lunch.



The rate is $32.10 per night -- tax included, for full hookups (30 amp connection) for 2 people. Additional guests, age 12 and up, are $5 each per night. In addition we are suggesting a $4 per rig donation to cover the cost of renting the "Barn" for our potluck. We will "pass the hat" at the event for this.



Please CALL us to be put on the list of attendees. Then pay for your site reservation directly with the RV Park by filling out their reservation form available online, and mailing it to the park with a check or money order for the deposit for your first night's stay (non-refundable). Sorry, credit cards are not accepted. The balance is due in cash or check upon arrival.



Please find and print the reservation form here:

As usual we expect about a dozen Toyota RVs. The first 12 paid reservations are guaranteed hook-up sites with our group; after that you may be in a section farther away, with hook-ups not guaranteed.



If you are new to Toyota RV Rallies, don't be shy -- we always have several first-time attendees. Call us directly (not the RV park) to have your questions answered.



Please note: We searched quite diligently for an appropriate Rally location reasonably close to the Harvest Festival and Louisville. Although there are some RV parks that are closer, they are not so nice. After careful consideration, we selected this one as best meeting our needs. It is reasonably quiet with lots of trees, great Wi-Fi, decent restrooms and laundry, a lovely pond, and an indoor rec room with tables for our potluck. However it does not permit bike riding, has a size limit for pets of no more than 30 pounds, and has no playground. Although the policies of this RV Park are a bit more restrictive than some, it IS a nice park, and specifically it is the only nice one that is close to the Festival -- all the others are at least 30- 45 minutes away. Therefore it's our best option, and hopefully our members will find it agreeable. We will work with the park's policies to create a rally experience that is enjoyable for us all.



Now, please call us when you read this and leave us a message to say you are interested in coming, even if you can't send your check just yet.
