It’s Reunion Time!
Every three years it rolls around. We’re often asked why we chose to have the “Excel Family Reunion” in three year increments. I jokingly say: “It takes a year to plan it, a year to pay for it, and a year to forget how much work it is!”
In all honesty though, we get so excited as it draws near. The reunion has become such a special time for Excel family members and staff alike. It truly is a time when we get to see old friends and renew acquaintances. Yes, there is always a few who say “Hey, I know you’re busy and I don’t want to take much of your time, but since you’re standing here… let me complain about my Excel……”. Most though, appreciate that this is a time for us all to get together and have a great RV experience.
This year’s event will be down a bit on numbers. We’re expecting around 325 rigs and about 700 family members to trek into Smith Center for the 5 day event. For those of you who have never experienced an “Excel Family Reunion”, I’ll encourage you not to be discouraged about dry camping. We promise to keep you busy from 7:00am when some guy wakes up the entire town, until at least 10:00pm every night. You’ll be so tired that you’ll fall asleep within moments of your head hitting your pillow.
If you haven’t already done so, get your reservation made today. We are in the midst of arranging our parking so that all club members can park with their respective clubs. As for the weather in Kansas. Don’t worry, we have placed an order for NO RAIN and picture perfect weather throughout the event.
We can’t wait to see you here.
Bryan Tillett, President
