Join a great group of Renegade RV owners for a Rally on Monday, April 15 through Friday, April 19, 2024 at the Coastal Georgia RV Resort in Brunswick, GA.
We will enjoy "glamping" (glamour camping), amazing nature scenes, incredible history, group meals, fun social activities, RV-related trainings and lots of opportunities for informal and spontaneous fellowship!
There are two steps to register for this event:
1. Rally Registration: Use the "Register" button on this webpage above to reserve your spot at this rally. The cost for meals and activities will be $125 a person, with $25 of this as a non-refundable deposit. There will be additional charges for online software registration and credit card fees.
Make sure you complete a registration for each person attending. Enter the information for the first person and on the final payment page, look for the link to "add another person" to add one or more participants.
Very important: Your confirmation email will provide a passcode. This passcode will be required for you to make a reservation at the RV resort.
2. RV Site Registration: Once you have your passcode, please contact Coastal Georgia RV Resort at 912-264-3869. The resort will collect your RV site deposit, confirm your reservation, and provide you with a site number. The RV site rally rate is $51/per day + tax + $3.50 booking fee.
The rally rate will be honored for five days prior and five day after the official rally dates. With that said, our rally is wedged in between two other rallies. There are very few spots available outside of our rally dates.
We will be filling our agenda full of trainings, group purchase opportunities, 1-on-1 meetings with vendors, and fun fellowship opportunities as we get closer to the event.
Please contact Julie Swartz at julie@renegadervlife.com for any questions.
