For those who are interested, we have selected Fort Chiswell RV Park in the Wytheville, Va. Area as the site of the 2009 Virginia-Mid Atlantic Rally. The dates will be Thursday, Aug 6th through Sunday, Aug 9th. Reservations can be made at any time (ours have been made already) by calling toll-free 1-866-724-5505. Be sure to mention the Montana Owners Club. The rate will have a 10% reduction off of their normal rates. I was told that all sites are 50 amp full-hookup. After Thanksgiving we will start arranging activities and of course will be accepting volunteers to head up the planned meals and activities for the times selected. I will be making some kind of arrangements for a day trip to the Beckley Exhibition Coal Mine (an actual trip underground into a coal mine setting) and possibly a detour by the Pipestem Resort Aerial Tramway. I will start the sign up list and update as people express interest. Please post or PM me if you are interested in attending, I have summarized previous posts to show who is interested and will need to know when your reservations are made. We are believing for MORE than 20 rigs!!! When reservations are made, I would like to note it on the list. No down-payment is required for the reservation, but they will take your CC in the event of untimely cancellations. The web-site for the campground is
