RDawson Posted December 16, 2020 #1 Posted December 16, 2020 I looked on the calendar and don't see the dates for Rally at the Shores. We're claiming vacation days at work and want to get it. Is the date set? 1
Marcarl Posted December 17, 2020 #2 Posted December 17, 2020 I guess and am guessing, but the decision was to keep it at the same week as we had this year, but the powers that be keep moving the calendar dates around so each year a new decision needs to be made. It will move only one day dates this year, to July 15th thru 18th.
RDawson Posted December 17, 2020 Author #3 Posted December 17, 2020 Thanks Carl, I went ahead and ASS-U-MEd the dates and laid claim to that weekend. Now I just hope it works out, with the Covid crap going on and the fact we’ve been chronically short staffed they’re not letting us plan vacation time over two weeks in advance. I also claimed the Vogel weekend. 🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞
NSA Joe Posted December 19, 2020 #4 Posted December 19, 2020 Only 7 month to go can't wait. Hey big tom maybe this time you will stay on the bad side of the tracks. Cause you know we did have the best view. Hopefully everyone will be able to make it this year. Missed seeing everyone last year. Hope we will have some more of that pms cake that was made this year. Dave and Ernie did a great job feeding us.
BIG TOM Posted January 2, 2021 #5 Posted January 2, 2021 I talked to Ernie to set the dates. I will confirm with him availability of that week. He has a lot of advance booking for this year. Give me a day or two to get these dates confirmed. He did tell me that no payment will be due at booking , but FULL payment will be due ONE WEEK prior to the rally. Also he got rid of the company that was doing on line bookings... they were messing up the bookings. He will take care of the bookings himself and I will give you his cell no. as soon as I confirm the dates. Bare with me.. 1
uncledj Posted January 2, 2021 #6 Posted January 2, 2021 I sooooo want to go, but I'm not convinced that, through his great wisdom and resolve to protect,....Cuomo will have the state opened up by then.
Marcarl Posted January 7, 2021 #7 Posted January 7, 2021 Spoke to Ernie today, owner of Niagara Shores. Date is set for July 15th thru 18th More info will be posted in the coming times. Keep your eyes open to hear the all news, news.
Marcarl Posted January 7, 2021 #9 Posted January 7, 2021 Yep,,, news news is better than just news,,, it's newer and fresher and doesn't ever go bad. At least that's my story!! Get ready for more new terminology.
BIG TOM Posted January 7, 2021 #10 Posted January 7, 2021 As you might have figured out by now, Carl will be running the WNY Rally for 2021. Thank you Carl for being VOLUNTEERED lol. I hope to see you all there. I will be waiting for new news also. Thanks again Carl and good luck.

Wow,,, don't rush me, I said,,,,,,,,,,,something,,, what did I say,,, can't remember now. Ernie was very busy last week, he said it would be this week for more info. Hopefully then by the weekend.
BIG TOM Posted January 18, 2021 #13 Posted January 18, 2021 Carl, just wondering if you have heard any new .
Marcarl Posted January 19, 2021 #14 Posted January 19, 2021 I am in constant touch with NS. Ernie had a death in the family happen last week, so it slowed things up a bit. Will post as soon as I get some news.
Marcarl Posted January 26, 2021 #15 Posted January 26, 2021 Got some news today, now all I have to do is to clarify it all for you all, and get some clarification for me as well. More news soon.
RDawson Posted January 27, 2021 Author #16 Posted January 27, 2021 Yeah I know this is off topic but a question for all y’all in the area. Watching the Science Channel I just saw the story of the Kinzua Bridge collapse, we like to see historic sites and are considering detouring over to see it. 300’ high and a glass floor is something right up my alley, my wife not so much. Anybody up there have opinions on taking time to see the park and are there other attractions nearby?
Jayceesfolly Posted January 28, 2021 #17 Posted January 28, 2021 Ron: I have been to the Kinzua Bridge twice in the last 6 years and it is about a 3 to 3 1/2 hour ride from Niagara Shores Campground. About 130 to 140 miles depending on route. It is worth seeing, quite spectacular to see the bridge lying in the valley. The glass floor is nice to look thru. There is a new visitors center there and it tells the history of the area and the coal industry. I camp in the area when I go there as it is quite a long ride for me( I live only 40 miles from Niagara Shores Campground). I do not know of other attractions in the area, as I have not really looked in the area other than to visit the Bridge. My guess is it would be a long day ride for you. Maybe spend an overnite there on the way to the Rally or on the way home to KY?? Lots of info on Google about the Bridge. Jim 1

steamer Posted February 7, 2021 #23 Posted February 7, 2021 Will not be attending this year. we have attended or work at every rally since joining VR in 2010 and have enjoyed everyone of them and very much enjoy the company of everyone of you who have attended. We have decided to spend some time this year traveling the country as much as possible. covid has shown us that life is short. we will see all of you at the next rally, or maybe another VR rally. We would very much like to see other members set up their own rally so we can gather somewhere other then NY. stay safe. 1 1
Marcarl Posted March 7, 2021 #24 Posted March 7, 2021 Time is moving on, and we need to know if there is interest in the Niagara Shores Rally. The spot is right on Lake Ontario. If you have interest to attend, then please indicate that on the calendar, so that we have some sort of an idea. I know the covid thing has most of us wondering what July will bring, but we do need to plan a little. So please do your thing.
Phoneman1981 Posted March 13, 2021 #25 Posted March 13, 2021 Hello Everyone: Bucket list event for several years. Considering it this year.
