 April 2022 Rally at a new campground just south of Winston-Salem - Salem Breeze.


Our latest rally was held last weekend, April 28th - May 1st. We went to Salem Breeze Campground for the first time as a club. This is a fairly new campground, developed and owned by Robert Sells, who also owns the Cool Breeze campground in Galax, VA.

The route in was easy. At this time there is no prepayment or deposit, just make a reservation and show up. The campground is small, about twenty sites, and it gets busy on the weekends.  Currently there are no bathroom facilities so your RV must be self contained. The sites are mostly pull throughs, with a few back ins. Each site is level and long enough and wide enough for easy access with a tow vehicle. Full hookups with 15/30/50 amp electric. Water pressure is high so bring your regulator. No cable at this time, but I was able to scan in about 35 local channels for the TV. There are several nice areas to walk your pets. Robert provided us the use of his large storage/office building, where he setup tables and chairs for us - worked out great for our Saturday night potluck dinner and meeting. There is no bathroom in this building but your coach is close by. Robert recommended a nearby restaurant for our Friday night group dinner - Arcadia. The service were very good and the pricing was great for the quality and quantity of the food. Go early as they get very busy.

We had a good mix of club newbies and veterans. Eight couples came in their coaches and two more joined us for dinner. Several couples had family commitments, work, or traveled during the day, but we all got together for nightly meals. On Friday most everybody went their own way during the day. Friday, late afternoon, the Hoopers treated us all to smoked chicken wing appetizers at their site - very tasty. On Saturday several people got together for cards and indoor and outdoor games. Robert, the owner, gave me permission to wash my coach that day - it really needed it. Check out on Sunday was not until 2:00pm but we were all on our way home by noon.

Hope to see most of you in June, the 9th - 12th, at Tanglewood Park in Clemmons, NC. We have the most level fifteen sites reserved for us. Call them before May 9th at (336) 703-6494 for your reservation. Check your email for more on this.

Sorry I forgot pictures again - somebody remind me next time please.
