There are no tech talks or RV University talks currently scheduled for the Rally. Generally the attendees of this Rally are very well versed in RV’ing, Systems and Components. We hope to have serveral of the Facebook View Navion Moderators at the Rally. Ideally, this will all be about enjoying each others company, having fun and a beverage around the fire. Given the increased number of participants this year, there may be a desire for a tech talk Please let me know that you would like one and the subject in advance so we can prepare. I am positive it can be arranged.
