Stay on the Shiny Side of Life

Dear RoadRunners,
What an incredible eight months it’s been! From sunny coastal gatherings to high-octane trackside adventures and scenic mountain escapes, our club has continued to thrive thanks to the passion, energy, and dedication of every member. Whether you joined us for a weekend or rolled with us for days on end, your smiles, stories, and shared miles made every event special.
 
A huge THANK YOU to all our incredible volunteers who move the club forward—rally hosts, organizers, setup crews, clean-up teams, photographers, social media helpers, and everyone who steps up behind the scenes. You are the heart of the RoadRunners! Your time and effort turn good ideas into unforgettable memories.
We also want to encourage YOU—yes, you!—to consider putting on a rally. It doesn’t have to be massive. Start small with a local gathering or a themed weekend. Our club is always looking for fresh ideas and new hosts. Reach out to any board member if you’d like guidance or support. Let’s keep the calendar full and the adventures rolling!
Highlights from the Past Months - We’ve had a fantastic run of rallies that showcased everything we love about RVing together:

Thank you to every host, co-host, and volunteer who made these events possible. The laughter, the campfires, the shared meals, and the open roads created bonds that last far beyond the events themselves.
