Ok, let me begin by saying Craps was CRAP this time around. I didn't win enough in Vegas for my bus down payment, hell, I had to wear a dirty shirt I had left over home, but anyway that is behind me now.

I have been checking out some various sites for POG IV, and I will begin by letting you know what my requirements were for the sites. These are ONLY sites that I thought might be considered to be worthy and the final decision is still up to the People in Charge, NOT ME ! I am just the investigator, and I have an Excel Spreadsheet to prove it, if you want to see it.

Some of the requirements are:

1. Able to accomadate 50+ coaches of our size
2. Concrete Pads for the rigs, and paved roads through out the rally site.
3. Complete Catering Options for our group
4. Expected nice weather at that time of year
5. Some pull Through sites, for those towing trailers
6. Various Optional Activities near the area, ( Besides Drinking, near the coaches, which I enjoyed greatly ), ie: Theaters, Plays, Casinos, Motorcycle Rides, etc.
7. Availibility of the Rally site for our group, in October 2007
8. And finally the obvious, 50amp, cable, water/sewer hook ups

Here is the first group of sites for everyones review. Please check out the web sites, look at all the various pages, and POST YOUR THOUGHTS. If you have actually been to any of these, make your personal comments, known.

I should have a few more sites to consider early next week for review. Remember, I am not making the Rally Site decision, I am only providing OPTIONS.

1. Cherokee / Smokies KOA, N.C. http://www.koa.com/where/nc/33173/

2. Sundermeir RV Resort, Mo. http://www.sundermeierrvpark.com/

3. Rayford Crossing RV Resort, Tx http://www.rayfordcrossing.com/

Let me reiterate, these are just a few of the many possible True Rally Sites, but these do meet the requirements that some of you posted earlier as hoping to find in our next rally. I believe these will provide a fun and enjoyable POG IV Rally, up to the standards we experienced at Buckhorn Lake RV Resort for POG III.
