We have worked the one in Indio CA for the last 3 years and I know people come in with their day passes on the 1st day. <br /><br />It always amazes me how people in this type of organization can be so rude. Certainly no way to get new members. <br /><br />You can get email addresses for the SEA Rally officer's off the website I would certainly email them and let them know of your experience.Wayne and Robertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17707083374034910289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012334620640049242.post-90263737141068264622011-02-03T07:31:07.565-05:002011-02-03T07:31:07.565-05:00Kevin and Ruth has left a new comment on your post...Kevin and Ruth has left a new comment on your post "Brooksville FMCA Rally – thumbs down!": <br /><br />Organization is the key to success, and it seems the FMCA are not so organized.

I agree that their website and communication is sorely lacking. I know last year they asked folks to leave the vendors area because they had their dog with them-said no dogs in tent??? Well this year they communicated that better(no dogs in tents) and even go on to say don't leave pets in vehicles or they'll call authorites. Talk about making friends and increasing membership-NOT. Some seminars are great and we like shopping (or looking) at vendor tent. Now that we have the 5er we'll no longer be FMCA members. We do plan to visit tomorrow (Thursday) anyway.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06076523638471888155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012334620640049242.post-51380338065980767822011-02-02T17:42:07.813-05:002011-02-02T17:42:07.813-05:00I went to the website and it clearly states Feb 2-...I went to the website and it clearly states Feb 2-6. So then why wouldn't a person show up on the second? <br />Mind you, I can usually judge the "cleverness" of the people by the design of their website, and it's a poor excuse for a website. <br /> Maybe that's a sign.<br />I think I'm with Rick on this one. Never did think of myself as much of a "Rally" type.

The website was wrong or misleading so they should have let you in. We use to work the day parking at the Brooksville Rally and there were so many politics going on we decided it wasn't worth it.

We have gone to several where they say it starts on a wed and we when we arrive on the appointed day, where surprised that they had seminars and other events as early as Monday. More important for us, many of the seminars were already fully booked for the event by those who came in early.<br /><br />The response we got when we asked why it did not advertise for Monday, the response was -"everybody knows how these events work." we also were not very happy with their attitude.Chuck and Anneke's RV travelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01929384797592263167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012334620640049242.post-55171891952503757692011-02-02T14:38:48.129-05:002011-02-02T14:38:48.129-05:00I would email the geeks and mac and let them know ...I would email the geeks and mac and let them know why you were unable to attend their seminars. If enough vendors complain and tell them that they are not happy that people were prevented from attending, they may force them to make a change in the way they run things.<br />Then I would call FMAC and explain why I'm cancelling my membership, they're not the only game in town and you can attend these seminars at many different places during the year where you'll be welcomed.PalmsRVhttp://palms-americana.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012334620640049242.post-84934031800448420732011-02-02T13:41:11.251-05:002011-02-02T13:41:11.251-05:00I'm with you.
