CA | 2013, May 2-6: 10th Annual CA FiberglassRV Rally @ San Lorenzo Regional Park

[Anne3358]

Dear FiberglassRV Rally Friends,

The dates have been set for the 10th Annual 2013 FiberglassRV Rally for the weekend before Mother’s Day, Thursday, May 2nd through Check-Out Monday, May 6th, 2013. Please note, at the 2012 May Rally, we all voted to change the Rally dates from Mother's Day weekend to the prior weekend and to move the Rally from Lake San Antonio to San Lorenzo Regional Park, which is located near King City, CA. (take the Broadway exit from U.S. 101)

The Rally will continue to reflect the traditions set by the founders, Mike and Lori Sanders. They started the Rally in 2003. For the first two years, the rally was held at Camp Ocean Pines, in Cambria. They then moved the rally to Lake San Antonio, where it has been ever since. Due to the deteriorating condition of Harris Creek campground, at Lake San Antonio, we decided to move the rally to San Lorenzo Regional Park. Much to our pleasure, Mike and Lori will be attending the 2013 FiberlassRV Rally.

San Lorenzo Regional Park is a highly maintained park with 99 camp sites. The park has an onsite Camp Host whose responsibility includes landscaping the beautiful gardens and lawns. Within San Lorenzo Regional Park is the Monterey County Agricultural and Rural Life Museum. The Museum consists of a restored farmhouse, one room school house, blacksmith shop and King City’s original train depot. I’m trying to arrange a guided tour, for our group of the Museum.

I reserved 35 sites of which 20 sites are full hook-up and 15 sites are water & electric. All sites are pull-through, have a picnic table and are covered under big shade trees. All sites have well maintained parking pads. We will have access to the Portola Building, which also has a BBQ unit. The park has a laundry facility, new and very clean restrooms with showers, a horseshoe pit, a bocce ball lawn and a nine hole putting green. San Lorenzo Regional Park is a child friendly park. There are two children playgrounds, one for young children and the other playground is for older children. Both playgrounds are within walking distance of our camp sites.


The full hook up sites will be the preferred sites. If you want to reserve a full hookup site be sure to send your payment for your site, as soon as possible. The block of sites, which I have reserved, are for Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday night. You need to pay me directly, since I am responsible for paying the reservations. If you plan to arrive earlier than Thursday, or stay later than Monday Check-Out, you will need to pay for those days at the non-discounted regular rate at the park entrance. The discounted camping rate is only available when the reservation is made through me! I can be reached at: marianne.dinsmore @ gmail.com


Camping rate for the 2013 FiberglassRV Rally:

• Discounted rate for Full Hook-Up: $38 per night (regular rate $40)
• Discounted rate for Water & Electric: $33 per night (regular rate $35)
• Dog Fee: $2 per dog/night (San Lorenzo has a 2 dog per site limit & Rabies shot verification required as per County Code)
• Rally Supply Fee: $7 per reservation site (not per person)
• Check-In time is 2 pm
• Check-Out time is 12 pm

The Rally Supply Fee is for any group expenses incurred for the Rally.


We are planning activities much like at past rallies and we will let you know, as soon as the agenda is finalized. At this point, Bill & I will provide “Friday Soup Night”, a definite hit last May. Then, there will also be “Thursday Dutch Oven Pizza Night”, another hit. Other activities include Saturday Dutch Oven Workshop/dinner and Sunday Potluck. If anyone would like to host other workshops, games or activities, please let me know!

I thought I would add a website link for informational purposes, but you must make your arrangements through Marianne to be with the group rally.

Hi Fred, thanks for adding the link to Monterey Counties Park.

Here are some pictures I took at San Lorenzo Regional Park. It was getting too late uploading them last night.

[Anne3358]

Hi Rosemary;

You have not been listed for several reason. I haven't updated in a while. Work has been interfering with fun.

Your check was received on Nov 20 which makes it kind of difficult to have been listed on November 3rd. Just saying.

Take care
Marianne

[Elvin Lowe]

This is going to be a great Rally!!!

We must have a Dutch Oven Workshop!!!

Below is a pix of the Dutch Oven Dinner from 2010 and the food was delicious!!!

Time to plan your 2013 Camping Trips
10th Annual 2013 FiberglassRV Rally, San Lorenzo Park, King City, CA

Bill and I just spend the week between Christmas and New Years at San Lorenzo Park. It was cold but we had a good time. Barbara and Frank and Carole and Les were able to join us. On New Year’s Eve we joined the Atascadero Elks group, who had a New Year’s Rally at the park, to welcome 2013.

Monterey County just allocated our rally an additional 10 Water & Electric sites. With the new addition the FiberglassRV Rally will have, in total, 45 sites available. Also, we had a change in reservation which opened a full-hook-up site, if you are interested please contact me as soon as possible to fill the site.

I wish I could, but I have three dogs, all special needs so they can't easily be left behind.

So bring them? Would love to see you!

[Bobbie Mayer]

Two dog limit per site.

[Anne3358]

. . . . to start planning our Rally.

To date, we have 20 full-hook-up and 16 water & electric sites with paid reservations. I'm currently working on the agenda for the FiberglassRV Rally. We have three interesting roundtable discussions planned.


San Lorenzo Park has a Bocce Ball lawn, horse shoes pits, putting green and lots of lawn to play a game of Croquet. If anyone has the needed equipment to play these games and would like to bring them to the rally, please get in contact with me. Bill and I have a Ladder Ball game and Badminton racquets and feather balls, which we will bring to the rally. We're missing a Badminton net. Again, if someone has a net, please let me know and bring it to the rally.


Who would like to participate in our Dutch Oven Workshop? Please let me know. If you would like to participate, don’t have a Dutch Oven, let me know and I will try to find one for you to use. At this point, I would like to get an idea of how many people are going to join the workshop and the size of their Dutch Oven(s). We'll do the recipe exchange later. Lori Sanders is going to lead the Dutch Oven workshop again this year!


I remember hearing about 'Movie Night', at the FiberglassRV Rally at Lake San Antonio. This took place before Bill & I had our “Little White House”. Does anyone have a projector and some movies? Bill and I will bring our projection screen. This sounds like another fun idea, if we can all put something together.


It's going to be an exciting rally. If you need to get in touch with me, please sent a private message (PM). Looking forward to hearing from you.
