I have to give praise to FROG Bob concerning the Rally. When we first registered our daughter wasn't able to attend with us so we signed up and for the RV tour/dinner on Thursday. Then later my daughter found out that in fact she could actually go with us. So I signed her up as an additional person for our unit but the tour was already sold out. I sent Bob an email saying if any cancellations occurred that I needed another ticket and then I also talked to him about it at the Tadpole Rally to find out how probable cancellations were. Well Bob and his wife came through for me. Yesterday I received an email reserving an additional tour ticket for me and a voice message on my phone where he was holding a spot for me on the tour and to call him back to confirm that I was still interested. I immediately called him back. They had two ticket cancellations and they remembered my need. Another person requested a ticket if something became available and they took care of them as well. With as many units registered to attend the Rally it would have been very easy for my request to get lost in the crowd but these two remembered with all they have going on planning the Rally. This will be the first time we attend the Goshen event and this is our first year camping having purchased our R-Pod back in January.

Wow just read on the frog website and forums that is rally is sold out. 750 rigs registered. Can't imagine what the meal lines will be like with over 1,500 people.

Welcome to FROG™ the Forest River Owners' Group!

NOTICE - REGARDING 2015 INTERNATIONAL RALLY

The overwhelming record response to the 2015 FROG Rally has completely filled the Elkhart County 4-H Fairgrounds. As a result, we have had to suspend further registrations while we explore the possibility of obtaining additional electrical service.

Should we be able to expand the utilities, we will re-open registration. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Re:  The FROG International Rally

We just spoke to Bob Byrne at Forest River, he is going over all the reservations and they are up to 570 as of today.  Last years total was 510 he said.   We are number 470.  We reserved on Sunday 3/29.
He does expect 700 total RV's.  

He said he feels like Roy Scheider in JAWS:     "We're gonna need a bigger boat"  LOL

I'm finding out today the numbers are more like last year so far around 550 currently registered.  It seems with the new online system and many people becoming confused with it several people registered multiple times.  One couple did as many as 9 reservations.

So looking a bit less crazy than it did yesterday.

My estimate is that 90% of RVers travel with a dog. Or a cat. Or rabbits, or guinea pigs and hamsters.. Nearly every podder I know does.

But no that is not all pods. That is total RV's.

For 2014 there were 36 pods. And around 500 total RVs.

No, it is for any RV manufactured by Forest River but there will be plenty of R-Pods.
