2009 RIV CCW Are you listening. - Jim Riordan - 10-28-2008 03:12 400 Coaches in Perry 2007 60 Coaches in Branson Mo 2008, mmmmmm I guess in some circles 60 coaches is a successful rally, but compared to THE RALLY IN THE VALLEY? Maybe us Bluebirders should organize to have a Rally in the Valley in Perry next year, we could invite CCW and other vendors to participate if they wished! I think that the way that Bluebird did the rally's is probally gone. Maybe we could find a retired Bluebird person (Brenda)to assisit us in organizing it for a fee, or someone who is local to Perry, Ga. area. I am sure the fairgrounds would be interested, in having us back. Possibly could fold in the RATS rally in. Just a thought.

I think that you will find the cost to be quite high. BB used to absorb some of that. Also, The Family of Friends were heavily involved in putting it on. Many volunteers. I attended my first one where there was around 500 plus coaches attending. Cost was a major factor in its loss of attendees. When it was $150, everyone wanted to attend. Organizing it would not be that difficult, if you could afford it. R.E.

I would wonder whether BB will be in business for another year not worry about their support for RIV. Every mfr. is suffering. FW shares are down to 25 cents. Monaco is hanging by a thread. Winnie is shakey. Marathon sales are way down. How long can CCW keep subsidizing the BB plant?? I just hope that it is sold to another party and does not go to auction. Bruce 1988 FC35 |
