For those of you that are unfamiliar with this rally, it is for molded fiberglass trailers.  Last year there were about 90 trailers...Casitas, Escapes, Bigfoot, Olivers, Scamps, and others.  Consider joining us for a great gathering.

I've been to this rally several times and found the folks to be welcoming and just plain great.  Alas, I cannot be there this year because I'll be in Canada, but would encourage any Ollie owners to go and meet other molded fiberglass trailer owners.  Look at how great their 20 and 30+ year old trailers can look, learn the fine art of Dutch oven cooking, make new forever friends, and just relax and have a great time.  You can't go wrong.  Sign up!

 

Over the last 11 years, I've learned the fiberglass owner community is a family.  It is wonderful to meet friends, catch up on their lives, and share your recent adventures.

 

Go . . . enjoy . . .

I've been the last two years, very nice rally with mostly Casita's, but this year our old Casita has a new fiberglass cover installed, that now looks like an Oliver. Nicely located in Grapeland, Texas, about 20 miles from Palestine, Texas and the closest Walmart. Like someone said, all are welcome and bring your trailer whatever it is, I 've even seen an Airstream, or two.

We’ll give this some consideration. We are leaving the end of August for our fall adventure.  We should be back by the middle of October.

Trainman, hope to see you there this year with your Oliver!

Hope to see you there!  Btw...Dave and I live in San Antonio.  But used to live off I-10 just across from Fair Oaks.  Let us know if you have any questions about the rally.

Small world!

Sounds like fun, but we can't make it. It would be useful if rally threads would include a map showing the location, I had no clue where this is. Texas is fairly big....

 

 

How are the nearby National Forests for dispersed camping and recreation?

Pineknot Rocks! It's such an eclectic, funky place with so much history, The Roost featured a follow-up rally digest of the event in an article last year.

Tons of fiberglass trailers and fun. The more you explore the property, the more you discover and dig it.
