If 500 bucks tightens your back side, the powers that be are getting the desired effect. I suspect it's like that at Indio and other high end destinations. Some people like to hang with peers of a like net worth level. Or something. Nothing wrong with bein' trailer trash.

It appears that the Chapter is allowing Bluebird to run things. Costs for all the rallies are WAY out of line for what the costs are in other chapters. It appears that Bluebird/ bluebird chapter is trying to price out the lower income folks. Is it for snobs only? We just has a rally in another chapter at Cal Expo, one of the better parks around Sacramento ant the total cost for the largest, best site including the meals only came to $80. True there was some volunteer work. I am certain that Bluebirders aren't afraid to get their hands dirty if necessary. Last year I inquired as to why Bluebird was charging $250 for a three day rally when FMCA international rallies are only $99. And the FMCA rallies include three nights of name entertainment. The response was the cost of meals. They said that they figured $25 per meal per person. Now I have been living in a much higher cost of living area (CA) and the last catered meal we had cost only $17 per person including gratuity and tax, and included four kinds of meat, four different kinds of beans, and other items including drinks. Everyone had more food than they could eat. On top of this, the Bluebird Chapter has decided to drastically increase their dues this year. We have come to the decision that Bluebird doesn't want us as members nor do they want us to upgrade to a newer coach. We currently belong to six different chapters. Bluebird has consistently been the most expensive by a factor of 3 - 5. I was under the impression that Bluebird was helping the Bluebird Chapter with some of their expenses as an advertising expense. It more appears that their old customers are being used as a method of added income to feed corporate greed. Perhaps I have just been around organized rallies for two long. If there is anyone on the forum that is an officer of the Bluebird Chapter, I would appreciate their input.
