Just wanted to say a quick "thank you" to everyone at the CRA. This was the first teardrop event ever for the wife and I. Wanted to see what all the HUB HUB was about. I was in awe of all the styles, quality, workmanship and ingenuity of everyone. Also, I don't believe we've ever met a friendlier bunch of people!!! Had a great time even if it was rather warm.
Made some new friends, ( Hi Jim & Vicky), looked at a lot of campers for more ideas for ours, had a coon eat an entire giant mellon, a huge bag of cherries and all the wifes grapes while we slept. haha. Finally got to meet Bob Henry after reading him for years on this sight.
Anyway, thanks to all the folks involved with the planning and scheduling and work. This was quite an impressive event. Believe I'll plan to come again.

We've got a smaller Hoosier gathering in October at Salamonie near Huntington Indiana....hope to see you there :).

The Hoosier chapter is very enthusiastic and in my opinion special. In a good way :)

Thanks.

Go to the tearjerker site. www.tearjerkers.net . That is where all tearjerker gatherings are posted for all chapters. It costs nothing to join and most gatherings require no extra fees.

You can probably search Hoosier Salamonie as well...I'm not at a PC or I'd try. Tearjerkers web site is probably your best bet...that's the "official" list.

Just this forum is more active and a bit more generalized...you see all kinds of topics here....

We drove through the campground on Monday (7/27/'15). A day late and a dollar short I guess.
It was my first time in Mccormick's Creek. The spots are much more secluded than I would have expected.

You are right. I post on both forums since several of our members prefer the T&TTT site.

I'm not sure what other chapters do this double posting.
