Solid maybe. Waiting for them to post ticket prices, etc.

Missed last year. Am going this year.

I am planning on going to the NW Overland Rally again this year. I was only able to attend Friday of last year but I really enjoyed it. It's a Toyota Fest but I really found the people to be very inclusive and the experience was quite enjoyable.

Unfortunatley, this event occurs right after my kids get out of school and we already have plans to go to Portalnd and the Oregon Coast. We return that Friday, however, and I intend to go for Saturday & Sunday. If the weather is decent, my wife & kids might come. My Mom (TrailFox OB#6790) might be out in Seattle with her new 4Runner. If so, she'll tag along as well. Also, I'm trying to coax another Dad from our parents group to come along. The more the merrier!

Registration is open, now just waiting to hear if my wife can get the time off. For those who have gone before, do they put you in specific spaces, or can people arriving together park next to each other?

Thanks! I just edited the first post and the Rally Point entry to show that registration is now open.

We will be there! Unfortunately we are meeting family in Leavenworth, WA so aren't camping this year, but we are going to definitely go one day (probably just one day since it's $50 a person for a daily price). Next year we plan to attend and camp. I figure we will wait until the schedule is up to decide which day. We are looking forward to it!

Last year we convoyed with a friend and got to park together, we got there friday afternoon and it started to fill up quickly.

The parking crew is pretty good at parking groups together. You just need to tell them that you want to be next to each other.

 

[Spud]

We'll be attending for the first time this year, can't wait!

 

[kcjoiner]

Looks like a good time! I think I'll add this to the list of things I must do this summer!

 

[Sadkomodo]

Definitely going again this year. Had a blast last year. Met a great bunch of people. I wish they had more events in the PNW.

 

[Jason McManus]

Looks like a great time! This will be my first one, looking forward to it!

 

[justjohnthomas]

We're hoping to make it over this year. Looking forward to it!

 

[kcjoiner]

I registered today. See you all there!

Planning to go. This will be a first for me.

Steve, any chance the two of you are going to be in the area?

Nope, nit that time of year. Maybe later in the fall.

 

[Fletcher8969]

Never been to anything as I'm just getting started. I'll plan on going.

Is any one just doing a day trip one day kind of thing to this?
