Yup thats unfortunate. Suspect the meet organizer realizes it as well but unfortunately there are only so many week-ends available and so many different meets to try and avoid conflict with

Sorry about that but we've been using the last weekend of May so as not to land on the same weekend as Escape Trailers rally but they seem to have changed theirs the last couple of years. :-(. I will check with Reece next year so we can make sure the dates don't collide. Marina

Hello from Texas! We would like to sign up for this rally, but want to make sure we are assigned in the Kingfisher or Beaver Loops. Should I call and speak with a live person, rather than sign up online?

Thanks

Yes, Escape changed theirs last year because they had a high school graduate in the family.

Fred, the campground is holding those loops for a time for only those attending the meet so if you sign up fast you will get one. Just MAKE SURE in the notes section on the internet reservation that you say your attending the BC Glass Eggs Trailer meet and wish to be in the Kingfisher loop.

The meet has been held at this campground many times so the staff will work to keep the group together.

Thanks Carol

Can someone please confirm that the only way to attend the Escape Rally is to be a current owner?

Nope. Not necessary to be an owner. I seem to recall a Biggar a few years ago. And a Shasta restoration.

Yes, it was Erin's grad, and Tammy had said something to the effect that arrangements with Nk'Mip worked better for this weekend.

It is too bad, but there are only so many weekends to camp in Canada, and chances of conflict are pretty good. The only one of these BC Glass Egg rallies I was able to make it to was at Fort Langley in 2009, but it was scheduled a few weeks earlier in May that year. I had good fun there.

Should keep in mind that many attendees to the Escape Rally arrive days early and stay days late, and I expect the same happens at the Glass Eggs rally, so it might be possible to sort of do both.

Hi all,

Is this primarily Boler owners at this rally? I have a SUPER old Boler I inherited from my grandpa (#49, to be exact) and wouldn't mind getting a few people who have experience with this exact trailer to give me some pointers on next priorities for work. I've not done too much so far. That weekend is iffy for me, but I might be able to shuffle some things around.

Hi sooveroo, this rally is open to all makes and models of molded fiberglass. You need to call the Ft Langley
Campground to make a reservation in the Kingfisher or Beaver loops. Let them know you are with the
BC Glass Egg group. Everyone will be excited to see an older Boler.

Glen, I was grandfathered into the Escape Rally because half of my Biggar is Escape parts. Lol
I haven't gone for a couple of years now as it is an appreciation rally from Escape trailers to
their customers. That being said, I don't think they would mind if other trailers show up, maybe
just let them know ahead of time.

Sounds good! I'll call them on Monday. Hopefully there is still a spot for me. In Vancouver, so I don't have to travel far, which is nice As for my Boler, it's a flat top, #49 off the line in 1968 - inherited from my gramps. I haven't done a whole bunch to it, just made it liveable, so am always looking for people with more technical skills to help me figure out how to prioritize tasks! Cosmetics I can do, but the rest of it, I always need any advice I can get

Suvi, it would be great to see you & your pup again!

And yes lots of Bolers attend the BC Rally more of them than any other brand of trailer.

Alas, Carol, my sweet Stevie girl didn't make it to see another camping season. Getting around just got too tough for the old girl and I had to say goodbye. Heartbroken and truly not sure what it will be like to camp without my faithful buddy! I might have to borrow a furry friend to bring along
