This year, for the first time in many years, the Southeast Area
moved the rally from Brooksville, FL - an hour south to Sarasota, FL.
The first hint that a change in venue was a good idea – it sold
out several weeks before the rally. Fuel at the lowest price in years
may have helped, too.

With about 850 family coaches and another 110 coaches for sale -
arriving in a very busy area resulted in a few glitches. Harold
Wollaber, the Lindens and the Roules represented western New York..
Bev Brown visited for one day, too.
The
committee from the Southeast Area put together an ambitious schedule
with a box lunch Friday along with circus acts circulating through
the area, and a full breakfast Saturday morning.
Entertainment
was geared to the generation in attendance, pop, older rock and roll
and old country all 3 nights. Almost everyone stayed through each
show.

Rumor is, the rally will return to Sarasota in 2016.
