Just like the Midwest, the RV industry has seasons to it. Winter indicates the start of RV Show Season. Once the ice melts and the Snowbirds return to their northern homesteads, RV Rally Season starts to bloom. An RV rally is a great event for owners of a specific RV brand to get together for several days. Many RV OEM’s (manufacturer) have owner clubs that host events across the country with Grand Design being the most active. Depending on the event and location, factory or local tours are offered to showcase the area to attendees. Some OEM’s provide on-site service techs to help with repairs and support to owners. Vendor booths spread throughout the campground display everything from internet providers, tire monitoring systems, cleaning products, and travel insurance programs.

MORryde offers both information and installation on products to help RV’ers enjoy their RV more. Rally coordinators, also called Wagonmasters, put on fun activities and tournaments for attendees, such as Cornhole and theme nights. But there is one aspect of a rally that is never overlooked by both vendors and attendees – the food! Each rally is different regarding the number of meals freely provided and the range of food offered. Some rallies opt for food trucks, serving up everything from burgers to Mexican to Fusion. Other rallies coordinate carry-ins or potluck meals amongst rally goers, and others prefer to have a catered meal.

As a supplier, we’re usually busy with seminars, talking to customers, and installations. However, we never turn down the invitation to grab some delicious grub – no matter how unique it is! Here are a few foodie highlights from our first three months of the 2022 rally season.
