Rally Times are the BEST of Times!

The Second Annual Country Coach Friendship Rally is in full swing. What a great group has gathered to have fun together for four busy days at River Bend Resort in Harrisburg, just a couple miles from where all Country Coach motorcoaches were originally built in Junction City Oregon.

Today is another full day of touring three major service providers located minutes from the rally site--all of which offer outstanding care and attention to highline motorcoaches and other RVs. There will be a catered meal at Country Coach Corporation, a service center, parts resource and consignment sales business located on many acres of the former Country Coach, LLC campus). Ron Lee, owner, has contracted the extremely popular rally caterer Bambino's to present the luncheon to rally guests; then it's across the driveway to Premier RV Services (also a full service and coach renovations business co-owned by former upper management staff of the former Country Coach, LLC Gary Obermire and Susan Graham). Premier is located on 26 acres of the former Country Coach, LLC campus and offers hand selected pre-owned coaches for sale (the largest inventory of Country Coaches in the U.S.) . Premier has several acres of indoor secured heated storage for RVs, boats and autos, too. Here is where the club will be recognized on its First Anniversary since its formation with 40 member coaches last year at the First Annual Country Coach Friendship Rally. The club is now numbering over 170 members strong....and growing! The rally agenda finishes the afternoon at Bob Lee's facility, Oregon Motorcoach Center on Airport Road in Eugene. It's always a delight to visit "Camp Oregon Motorcoach." Country Coach (then Country Campers) founders Bob and Terry Lee and family will be on hand to spend this special time at Oregon Motorcoach Center with rally attendees.

The night tonight finishes up with an outdoor chicken barbecue reminiscent of the days when the Lee Family including patriarch Bob Lee were at the grills cooking chicken for the attendees. VIPs Gary Obermire of Premier RV Services, Ron Lee of CCC, and Pat Mason (Bob's son-in-law) of Oregon Motorcoach Center will don their aprons and "get their grill on..." 

Friday will be another full day of rally fun, and motorcoachers favorite entertainers Bernie & Red that evening; followed by a Saturday morning Club meeting. Then the group bids their goodbyes until they rejoin at the Fall Fun Rally in Petoskey Michigan in September http//www.CountryCoachFriendsIncorporated.com. What a fun loving club, and one of the fastest growing international chapters of Family Motor Coach Association! Membership is open to owners of all brands of motorcoaches and their rallies are among the finest available to motorcoach owners!

I enjoy a great affiliation with CCFI -- doing anything and everything I think of to get the word out to motorcoaching enthusiasts about Country Coach Friends Incorporated--the world's friendliest club!

-- Gotta Run as Rally Times are not only the BEST of Times, they are the Busiest of Times!

Until Next Time,
