Texas Oliver Rally 2025

[Donna and Scott]

trying to set up another Texas Rally. So far, there is a Riverwalk RV Resort in Bandera, Inks Lake State Park, Lake Sommerville Rocky Creek (COE), Lake Sommerville Yegua Creek COE, South Llano River State Park (near Kerrville)., Midway COE  near Waco and Airport Park COE near Waco, Lake Brownwood State Park.  Any other recommendations? I will put a poll out soon but it will be on Facebook.  I will keep those that are not on FB informed as this event progresses.  Trying for Oct 20-23, 2025.

Only recommendation I have is to schedule it for early November so we can make it down from Nova Scotia! 😜

Scott and I are not available in early November because of our scheduled Elk hint in Montana.

another location suggested is Lake Mineral Wells State Park.  It is about an hour from another approved Oliver Dealer, United RV
