Well we made our reservations for the rally today, we are going to be in camp site 52, we will be arriving that Sunday before so if there is anything we can do to help with the before the rally and maybe signing in process let us know.
Good to hear. I am arriving Tuesday and hopefully I will get my reservations in the morning.

Having a think about camping at the Rally Site and wondering if there is a way to share reserved sites for a couple of small campers. We are likely to be bringing an Aspen camper trailer and it should work to have a couple of those on one spot, especially if they are being towed by a rig.
Thoughts? Offers?

Here are the rules of the campground;
I learned of a possible location very near Gull Point State Park for those who would prefer rooms or cabins over camping. My source of information lives at Milford, IA. He said Lakeshore Center at Okoboji has a lodge with motel-type rooms and also has cabins for rent. They have many repeat guests so I don't know how many units are available, but if you are looking for a place like this it would be worth checking out.
Prices appear to be reasonable.
The address for Lakeshore Center of Okoboji's address is 1864 Highway 86, Milford, IA 51351, phone (712) 337-3313, and URL is www.lakeshorecenterof Okoboji.org
Here’s the URL for the above site.

unfortunately the entire camp is reserved for the weekend of the rally.

Registered today. Reserved a studio AirBNB in Jackson, MN. 20 or so miles, but just couldn’t bring myself to attempting to camp at the rally site.
Hey - what facility is there at the rally site as HQ? Do we have a private building or…?

Are there any other sidecarists from The Great Pacific Northwest that will be traveling out to Iowa for this 2023 National Rally ???
I will be leaving the Olympia, WA area on Monday, June 19th, arriving at the Rally site on Thursday before noon.
If any PNW riders are going that way, let me know. I am not offering or suggesting we ride together, as...I go faster than a speeding bullet, but not faster than a lightning bolt... just interested if anyone else from the PNW is going to the 2023 National Rally.

Unfortunately Ruth and I are not able to make it this year. Our granddaughter is graduating from HS and her party is on the 24th. So proud of her and wouldn’t miss it for the world! Not even for a sidecar rally. Wishing all of you a very safe and enjoyable ride and rally! Enjoy!
I've reserved the Gull Point Lodge in the park for the rally headquarters. The lodge is the large log building on the shore of the lake.
