Received this from Jason Essary today.

 

Hey Donna,

Just wanted to let you know that I shipped 2 prizes out to Princess Craft and they have received them . I will be flying in on the 20th and visiting with Princess Craft on the 21st. I should be at the rally there in Inks Lake State Park on the 22nd to spend the entire day.

Regards, Jason D. Essary

I thought it was odd OTT sent an email recently to owners for an event planned over 6 months ago. We’re leaving tomorrow to spend a nice slow 10 days getting there, boondocking along the way. Can’t wait to meet so many Oliver Owners! Thank you @Donna and Scott so much. 😂

See you there.  Moderators of the Forum just want to make sure everyone that would want to attend have the opportunity to do so.  There are many new owners that may not have realized there is a Rally they can attend this year.

There should be enough to go around.  Princess Craft is Providing BBQ.    i had suggested that they plan for some extra.

Thanks see you next week.

Talked with Jason Essary today. He confirmed he will be at the Rally Oct 22. He said he is available all day, and maybe the morning of Oct 23 until he has to leave for the airport to get back to TN. If you have any questions about an issue with your Oliver, this is the ideal time to get some answers directly. He asked if there was an itinerary, but outside of the BBQ there really isn't one. Reach out to him via email, or call him this week if you need him to stop by your site during the Rally.

The Truma representative for central Texas will come to Inks Lake on Wednesday (October 23) to install soft starts in Truma AC's and host a mini-clinic. The soft start is an add-on that Truma recently started offering for their AC systems that can only be installed by a Truma representative in order to maintain the warranty.  A couple of us have already scheduled appointments with him. He will also be hosting a mini-clinic to show people how to care for their Truma AC and water heater systems and answer any questions people may have regarding their Truma systems.  He said there are common problems that people can avoid if they are aware of things to do for maintenance and freeze preparation. The mini-clinic be held at Site 44 and begin at 11:30am. He is also be available to do additional soft start installations or repair work as time allows.  If you would like to contact Todd (the Truma representative) and set up an appointment or ask any questions his phone number is (574) 326-6699.

The State Park has requested that I provide an Occupant List which includes the following information:

Occupant & Site Number: (I filled this one item out already)
No. of Occupants ( I also filled this one out)
TV Plate #_________________ Vehicle Make/Model ________________
Trailer Plate #________________ Make/Model____OLIVER_________

The more info I can provide them, the faster the check-in

If you would rather email me this information: my email is dgerould53@gmail.com. I am suppose to email the info back to TPWD.

Please also note: Currently in Burnet County there is a Burn Ban and with this in place Inks Lake State Park is also under Burn Ban which prohibits fires/charcoal/ash producing devices. Essentially only propane/electric devices are the only cooking devices allowed in the park at this time.

A few days ago we confirmed our prepaid reservation with TPWD and they gave us a link to print our camping passes. Our vehicle info is in our signature line.  Texas plates are RKY2365 & B565011 for our TV and trailer respectively.

We plan on making a pot of real south Texas chili (no beans) on Monday afternoon to share with the group at site 68. Nothing against beans, but they deserve their own pot.

If you are on the Rally event page on Facebook, you can post your site and let folks know you are planning to show real Texas Hospitality with your Texas Chili.   Scott still adds kidney beans to ours - but we are originally from upstate NY

For real Texan's the pronouncing of Burnet is made easier with this little Diddy:
