2020 Oliver Travel Trailer Owners' Rally

[Mattnan]

We are attending and have a site in section G.  I can't remember which one.  We are excited as this is our first rally.  We picked up #537 "Beacon" in October.  We left Maine February 2, for 4 months on the road.  We are currently in Savannah and will be heading to the Keys next week.  The rally is our last stop before heading home to Maine for the summer.  See you all there!!!!

Just because you will not have your Ollie until 2021 is no reason for not attending the Owner's Rally.  The State Park has both rooms in the Lodge and they have cabins.  Just think how far above the learning curve you would be if you joined us.  Certainly you are welcome and I think that you'd learn a bunch along with having a good time.

We are sorry we will miss it! Don't take delivery til 2021.

When we purchased our Casita (we now have an Oliver) we went to a Casita Rally before we got our Casita, we learned so much about the Casita and by the time we picked up our new Casita we were totally into everything we wanted to do to it and my upgrades were all ready to go in my shop. The wife had her stuff for the inside and we went to our 1st rally like we were old hands at this. We really knew from the rally visit we were making a good decision at the time, but as you can see as time went by we visited some Oliver's at rallies and now we own an Oliver. We still go to Casita rallies in Texas as we have so many friends with Casita's and yes they still make us welcome, once a fiberglass trailer owner you will always be welcome.

I sent a PM message to Hardrock in January and he has not read it yet so I am posting here in hopes he will see it.

A Furrion rep noticed my OTTO rally t-shirt while I was attending the RV Super Show in Tampa last week and asked about my OTT.  We discussed a variety of topics and I suggested he should seek a sponsorship opportunity at the 2020 rally.  I have included his business card if you are interested.

How are things going in Quartzite?

Hi Nan sorry for the delay in responding.  We were at Redgate. It worked out well.  It was so close to downtown a d quiet at night.  You probably know  campground is on a farm a d wedding venue. Perhaps we will catch up at the rally in May. We are in the Keys now and heading to Naples this weekend. Thanks Matt and Nancy  #537 "Beacon"

We are disappointed to read that Oliver will not have any technicians available at the rally. I am sure it is a headache for the company to provide technicians, but it is even more difficult for us to schedule and bring our new Oliver to the factory to resolve relatively minor issues. After all, customer service was a prime reason to spend the extra money on an Oliver. We hope that decision is reconsidered and technicians will be available.

New “Ollie” owners, we adopted hull #428 on Valentine’s Day at the plant and excited to be attending the rally. We’re nearing retirement with great plans but this is our first RV so much to learn! Can’t wait to meet the “Family”,

Congratulations on your adoption!  Our #135 is our first RV too.  After four years and 50K miles we feel like we’re pretty seasoned. You will too. See you at the rally!  Mike

I'm really sorry to hear this, but probably best considering the latest news on covid19. Best to let everyone make alternative plans early on.

We'll continue sailing and camping, but not in big groups, for the forseeable future.  Sunlight, uv, and outdoors are our friends. But not crowds.

Prudent decision.  I notice on other forums that other rally’s are being canceled or postponed too.  I’m sure Alabama the end of September will be nice.  Mike

[Mike and Carol]

We are disappointed that the rally will not happen in May, for good reason.  On the bright side, we’ll have a chance to experience northern Alabama in the early fall.  Might have the beginnings of foliage change.  Also, might get some even newer owners who take delivery this summer.

I have moved several posts from this topic to this thread.  The moderators felt it would be best if this thread didn't get sidetracked into a more general discussion about travel issues related to the coronavirus.  Please feel free to continue that discussion in the other thread, but we ask that you help us keep this thread focussed on the rally itself.

Thanks.
