Wanting to elevate Learn To RV from just an online resource and building off of the success of the Facebook and Reddit groups, I want to start building a sense of real community. With that in mind, I’m starting to plan out get togethers, hangouts, and (hopefully) rallies!
What Are They?
- Get togethers – basically an evening around a campfire. Maybe a potluck if we’re feeling saucy.
- Hangouts – a couple day gathering at a campground with a laid-back atmosphere. No real strong plans other than some potlucks and campfires over the course of a few days.
- Rallies – these are the real deal events with seminars, presentations, planned outings, potlucks, and campfires. These will typically be longer than the hangouts.
Where and When?
I’m trying to avoid keeping these to any one particular location of the country. My goal is to have them all over as we travel and as the member community themselves host events.
Hangout | April 29, 2022 @ 6pm | Clermont, FL | Orlando RV Resort | Come join us for our first ever hangout. Hosted by Doug Setzer, admin & created of Learn To RV. |
Hangout | June 5, 2022 @ 7pm | Burns, TN | Montgomery Bell State Park | Come join us in the beautiful Montgomery Bell State Park for an evening around the campfire, some drinks, and some snacks. Hosted by Doug Setzer. |
Hangout | July 7, 2022 @ 3pm | Cape May Courthouse, NJ | Sea Pines Thousand Trails | A belated July 4th celebration where we’ll hang out, visit, and get to know each other a bit. Hosted by Doug Setzer. |
To get started, RSVPs are going to be handled through Facebook Events in the Learn To RV group. If you’re not on Facebook, please send me a note that you’ll be there.
For events hosted at Thousand Trails campgrounds, you can either use a membership or get a campsite using their retail spots (though you may find that a membership often pays for itself!).
